I see your point, good arguments there , but think that the high binned ram kits are also interesting to work with on other platforms, this is just purely I7 related (I5 is on the M testbench, will have to check with Massman how it goes there).

Indeed with this setting you can regain some big ram bandwith (on certain mobo's with a too loose B2B setting) with a mere 1600mhz kit. Ram manufacturers might not like it, but we do :p So I still wish all manufacturers would add this feature to their biosses (under whatever name)
