I can tell you that I've never run mine past 2.2v and I'll be going through my third RMA soon enough, crucial.

You should be able to tell if it is double/single sided with the PN, find it out


I received my single sided 8500's from my RMA, they worked at stock, overclocked a bit but nothing special especially with my IP35 pro's crappy dividers. I was busy for a couple days and came back and now my computer is completely unstable, from my testing one of the sticks are already dying, WTF. I'm done with crucial.
