    Funny how you don't want to argue, yet you basically said that I lied to him. Whether the equation gives better result or not, I'm not here to evaluate it. All I know is, CellShocks are rated for 8-8-8-16-1T at 1866Mhz, and I took those same settings to 2000Mhz. I might have expressed my thoughts incorrectly, meaning that what I meant to say was that you can't take the Dominator setting for 1800Mhz [7-7-7-20] and use them at 2000Mhz like I was able to do with the CellShocks. Granted Dominators are 1800 and the CellShocks are 1866, but the rating that CellShock gives to their RAM [stated by them directly] is a relaxed setting to ensure that you will get that result by just dialing it it, and they know of people running this RAM at 7-7-7 1866Mhz due to the large headroom the leave for people to overclock their RAM.

    Now, with that in mind and the fact that eRetailers wanted about $499 for the Dominators and MemoryC just wanted $391 for the CellShock, was too easy of a decision to make when I bought them. Which is why I recommended it.
