    Zoson you got a good point about standardizing the test size. Does your guys' OS have enough free memory to test 5120MB? I'm a weirdo and like to test 'whole' gigabytes and I believe 5120MB is exactly 5GB. And how about 10 loops instead of 20? Maybe 10 loops for 12GB runs since it takes so much longer and 20 loops for 6GB?

    And I'm with Cryptik on having separate categories for 6GB and 12GB. It's the fair way to do it. And I somehow accumulated 30GB of Hypers so I'm down to do some 12GB testing myself ha.

    Thanks for the kind words and wishful thinking fellas. What's bothering me the most is the fact I never pushed the chip outside it's limits, and it still died. Feels like a waste. I really really hope they send me a good batch. But judging from my past experience, I'm not trying to get my hopes up. I feel Intel purposely sends THE worst batch they have on file when you do an RMA.

    P.S. Cryptik - I just saw your edit about the AirFlow Module. So at 60% it keeps 12GB warm to the touch? And that's while benching right? If so it seems like you got good airflow in your case, so no need to watercool them.

    And for your run I saw you had memory at 7-8-7-20. Have you tried 7-7-7-21? What's the difference in GFLOPS?
