Ket,
Very good review. You told it like it needed. I bought some CAS9, 1600 Corsair Vengeance, 8 G modules on sale at Newegg before your review. I'm getting 1866 @ 10,10,10,24 timings. I'm running the CPU at 4.8. I tweaked the secondary & tertiary timings for bandwidth. The sticks won't run past 1866. However, I'm only running 1.5V. Main timings cannot be tighter, even with higher voltages. Forget CAS9 @ 1866. I only paid $49 for the 8 G kit. Not bad results for the money. Timings don't seem to matter much for SB. If one is going to buy this kit, look at it as nothing more than value RAM, not overclocking RAM. I can't say I'm disappointed with the 1600 kit, but I had no expectations either.
