and I agree with leeghoof, wprime is no ram test

Probly we have different goal when it comes to ram. For me stability is not a priority. Good ram and mobo will served as base of a benching rig.

Try to find good clocking 2600K already time consuming, binning ram is the least of priority

[ZenEffect]

Any real stability test on them clocks zeneffect ? are they 24/7 stable at them clocks ?

they are stable enough to bench with, as far as 24/7 clocks im just running then at 2133 8-9-8-20 8gb. there is no real advantage to running 2200+ imho so i didnt really check.

@ dumo

2 black pcb, 2 green pcb. both of these kits clock the same though.

Yep, it seems no difference here too Zen

why does everybody want the green pcb? 8 layer? if blacks and greens clock to the point where the cpu/imc is the only real limiting factor, then whats the practical diff?

If i could afford it, id pick up another set or 2. these are by far the best kit of benching ram that have come out for sandybridge platform.

Good ram should do at least 32M or 3d stable wprime isn't even as good a test for bench mems as 1M - and btw, ram doesn't influence wprime score at all, 1333 and 2133 are all the same results ^^. I didn't ask for prime but was only interested if these are able to do benches that at least get some load on the mems, wprime is like screen stable

I care less with 32m and those stability stress tests, only bench 3Ds for fun and it served me well
These rams go to temporary benching rig anyway...not for 24/7 stable daily machine.

This is good enough for me...



B/way heres with AMD rig...

@ dumo... thanks! i think i will get these soon
if i may ask what ram do you use for 24/7? i use just some 1600cl9 patriot (16gb)..
was a cheap 2133 16gb kit lol

thanks Dumo, just grabbed another two sets of these, and I just found some of the 2200 7-10-10-27 Ripjaw X, so I should be good to go for SB-E

if i may ask... where did you find the cl7 ripjaws x? they seem to clock better than the cl7 pi counterparts...
i have 8gb of gskill pi 2200cl7
4gb gtx3
4gb of some old 2000cl9 trident bbse
and for 24/7 i have 16gb of some patriot ram (i think hynix bfr)

for quad channel i think i am only able to use the gskill pi gotta buy 2 sets of these... hopefully they don't sell out by tuesday

Hey Dumo, hows kicking?

Thanks for information, lets see if any will hit stock in EU

[PolRoger]

NewEgg now went back "out-of stock" on this kit.

I know it didn't even last a week, hope they restock soon.

[mikecdm]

Hope they are still quality ram.

I will post results when they get here but here are my older sticks

Awesome run there l0ud

Did you try it with CH V?

[l0ud_sil3nc3]

vdimm & VCCSA/IO?

thanks but I don't exactly remember vdimm, but I am guessing 1.8vdimm, 1.0875vccio and 0.91250 vccsa

thanks bud however it died on me before I ever got a chance and Fry's was sold out when I went to swap it so I have to grab another one.

some kid bought 3 kits yesterday from newegg... lol

[websmile]

Must be a kid with too much money - I bought 16GB of BBSE performing similar for the price of one kit at memc the last couple of months

[Hondacity]

lol

I bought 2 kits and I am not a kid, and they were about $50 less this time than last time, $230 shipped for both kits. If you think $230 is a lot of money well that sucks for you it sounds like you might need to find another hobby No need to hate, just getting ready for sb-e and bd and I jumped on it because this is really nice memory especially for the price.

and websmile that is some nice clocks on the 2000 9-9-9 sticks what volts?

[Hondacity]

not you bro, some guy i know bought 3kits. so you got 2 kits. you guys are lucky those are awesome kits

[Dumo]

Probly another stock refresh @ Newegg then EOL. Lol

1,64 volts VDimm, 1,07 VCCSA. 230$ for 8 GB of this ram is an acceptable price, is more or less what I paid for my two kits. But to be honest, at times of price drop I won´t pay 143 euros+ shipping anymore , which memc wants for the kit, this is more than 200 Dollars for 4GB. I paid a lot more for some of my hypers, but as I know where to look and what to buy I prefer getting my BBSE cheaper^^. Which doesn´t mean I´m not tempted every time I see these at Memory C

wow, >$200 for a 4GB kit is unacceptable, that is very high I originally paid $160 for them months ago.
I don't even want to talk about what I paid for my hypers and then I what I sold them for
regardless you seem to have found some good BBSE sticks
