I can't believe in such a low wall.

Temp is not the deal, I run it in a waterchiller.

Tried bios 1005 and 1101.

My first chip clocks great with low voltage, but it wont boot at 5200mhz no matter what. I think it was raja@asus that posted about the chips that do 2600+ mem are also the highest clocking chips.

The chip im using now needs higher voltage clock for clock than the first chip, but it will boot at 5400mhz (not benchable on water) and is benchable up to 5250-5300mhz. It is also much better for higher memory frequency.
