very good quad overclock.
Thanks, trans am,

What do feel an acceptable push volage would be on the Ballistix ... Maybe 2.4 or 2.5?

Also, the Gskill 8500 will run at 500, but seems to need pl 10 to be stable which costs me 300 MB/s in MemTest. Anybody know any tricks with some other voltage or memory adjustment that might stabilize it at pl9? I really don't want to fry it and 2.3v did not stabilize it, yet 300 MB/s is substantial.

I may be better off sticking with 465/560 on a 5/6 multiplier, but 500/2000 just sounds better.
