I use a chiller to cool all my components but I never run it below 12Cº to avoid condensation.

As for the mem speed I MADE A MISTAKE I clocked 6Gb at 2.230 BCLK160 BIOS 1104 - NOT AT 2.300, SORRY this was with timings on Auto 9-9-9-24.
I booted 2 times to Vista64, no stability check. I'm not a dedicated overclocker, I just mess around from time to time. 99.9% of time I run 12Gb without pagefile, only every now & then with a new BIOS release I take out 6gb & try to see how far I can clock it.

My only "goal" at the moment is to reach around 1800 with 12Gb, but now that I've installed an Adaptec 5805 RAID card it takes about 2 minutes after each reboot to start loading OS or to get into BIOS because of the RAID card eternal POST, so my tinckering with BIOS is kept to a minimum.

I bought these sticks at HPM-Computer.de after asking CSX (Mr. Heinrich) for a tailor made 12Gb set D9GTR which they later sent on to HPM under my name. I originally used 8Gb for my previous Striker II Extreme & kept the other 4Gb until X58 came out. I havent tried the HCF0 from CSX, what I really want to try are the ADATA 2133 sticks at 1.50.

In the US CSX parts are distributed by Tankguys.com

EDIT: Sorry again for my previous mistake
Thanks for the info and don't worry about the error. I do have to admit I was surprised that they clocked that high so easily so I guess I was on the mark. I don't know much about CSX memory since I never used their products but I hear from people that they are quite good. I will probably have to give them a shot at one point in time. My understanding right now is that Elpida ICs are better than the HCF0 that come with the Diablo triple channel kit. I will have to do some more investigation of this. This competition caught me a bit unprepared so I am struggling to keep up now.

I may even give CSX a call and see if they can tailor something for me for future.

In regards to ADATA, I heard that the ADATA are very good, but I cannot seem to find them here. I know that one of our bigger retailers here (London Drugs) carries ADATA but I doubt that they can supply the high end parts. I have only seen them carry 2-3 year old stuff

Are you aware of any US/Canadian retailers for ADATA?
