I'm still working with the 2 leftover Kingston Dimms and compared to my OCZ blades they do NOT get warm at all. Maybe there's bad contact with the IC's and that massive blue heatspreader ? I'm puzzled here as I had several Hypers here and this is the first kit that caps out on a sturdy mobo in under 2 days. Hope this is the first and last kit that goes down in my hands...

With my post I meant : if I see several guys that used Hypers and that have 3 or more diffferent ram kits that all die, there must be something else wrong ; either the mobo, settings (maybe due to bios) and or other factors... For me : one kit dies okay it happens, 2 is already a bit weird, 3 or more : time to digg deeper...

Here's the info for the Kingston kit :
