CL5 running 850MHz PL7 is not possible???
I would have to disagree

running the X38 Maximus with a rampage bios for well over a year I have never had an issue
CL4 PL7 is were issue's start, I dont have the Rampage powerd up yet, but I have run a Rampage bios from day one, I was one of the first ppl to flash my X38 to an X48 bios and have never seen this issue

I do agree if he can run CL4 then do it, but I cant see how looser timing will result in a det dram...
