I'm actually changing out my Tracer for Lanfest because after getting a set I really prefer the lack of red/green LEDs up top. I just ordered a second set to complete 4GB... now as long as these never die on me (they've got active cooling) because if they do I'll probably get Tracer replacement which is exactly what I don't want, unless they sent some PC2-8500 sticks my way.

But I've also noticed the same with their performance as the OP. My Lanfest are doing about what my Tracer and regular Ballistix were able to do (both PC2-6400)... right now 555MHz 5-5-5-15 with about 2.15V... getting about 9050MB/s-9100MB/s memory read on Everest's benchmark. The next divider will bring me up to 1184MHz and then I believe the 1232MHz after that one so I'll play around with those another day.
