    As soon as I get any fan to cool my ram, I'll try what can I do with vDDR up to 2.8v.
    e8500 @ 8x500 1.275v // true // rampage formula // 2x hr-05 sli/ifx // ballistix tracer 1066@1200 cl5 2.14v // en8800gt // hr-03 gt // 2x wd2500aaks // dp p7 550w // g5+g7 // e2201w-1 // p183 + 6x s-flex

    You can give it a try. Maybe you have more luck with 2 X 1 Giga and a C2D.

    With the memory at 1239MHz and 1.90V I can run MemTest86+ V2.11 all day long without making errors.

    I think it's the CPU and NB Clock Skew. Something isn't right when you go so high on DDR frequenty. You can try what you want but if you go over DDR 1200MHz it fails.

    Run it at 8 X 450Mhz and DDR 1199Mhz with tRD 6 and it runs so smooth that it's like your system isn't overclocked at all.
