    Ok they are here, a day early. Good old Amazon. One set of the 3 doesn't have a black pcb or otherwise scream "pick me!!!" so I'm going to open the one that actually has the labels placed on non-crookedly

    EDIT:

    Well so far the good news is that the packs open really easily (which when it comes to blister packs is welcome in general). The bad news so far is I am having trouble with them at low voltage, so far even rated 1066 at 1.95v. Memtest chokes right away. My board does undervolt RAM .05 (according to BIOS anyway) but I am accounting for that. Though not about these specific sticks, according to this post at Clunk's my board should be able to do it, in fact one guy is running 8GB of OCZ Flex LV near 1200 1.85v. Before I changed from 333 strap to 400/800 and manually loosened tRFC and PL I couldn't even POST. My Dominators for example will fire right up at stock clocks which is 333/800 strap at 1.85v but these won't. Tried more than one kit and a single stick too.

    Going to try a different BIOS or two next. Any other suggestions appreciated!
