Set 5-5-4-13 tRRD = 3 tWR = 6 and not 4 and you could go further with more vdimm

What about clocks? I could care less about tighter timings TBH. tRD, CAS, and command rate are the only really important ones anyway.

Impressive speed for 8gigs. Nice to see the Maximus handle it.

Because of that low voltage they could have Powerchips. Elpida would have needed more VDIMM and I don't know any other cheap 1 Gb chip with overclocking headroom.

Have you tried Memtest86+ ? Will it pass test 5, several times at least?
It's strange i can't run any of my eight sets of G.Skill PC8000 at anything lower 5-5-5 yet many people report 5-5-3. I find it hard to believe.

5-5-3 is possible at 533 MHz. But to past 540 5-5-4 at least and 570@5-5-5 at least
with powerchips and stable.

Wow very tight secondary for those sticks.
tWR = 4 is also tight for them this is good not only tRRD=1!
But i am not sure if you can keep that to reach 570+

Indeed, they use Powerchips.
They are the only ones which have 2GB strips.

Well with the timings above I might be able to get 5-10 more MHz.

575MHz DDR1150 with 2.1v using 4x2GB is no problem at all with those timings.
Just tried 600MHz DDR1200 using 2.1v = no go...

So what NB voltage, and of the various memory settings available are you guys using for your kits?
My current...
NB Voltage - 1.61v
DRAM Static Read - Enabled
AI Clock Twister - Strong
Transaction Booster - Disabled (1)
Also what subtimings for your sticks?

With which memory divider?
They are all good but twister strong needs more nb voltage.
And disable 1 if on 5:6 you have pl = 8.
I am using pl=7 and twister moderate on fsb=450@5:6@540-5-5-4-13
