I went ahead and bought these from newegg
G.SKILL Trident 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2000 (PC3 16000) Triple Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F3-16000CL9T-6GBTD - Retail
I figure if i can get my 20X200 running, my ram can run x10 right at 2000.
I see you were using the XMS memory- did your UD5 set the correct timings for the XMP profile? I have the CAS7 version of the same memory and my GB Extreme simply won't set the correct timings using the XMP profile, whatever BIOS I use. I'd be interested to know how you get on with the GSkill...
