I'm even sad enough to have paid £4 for a plastic memory tray with lid.

Link me bro.

Seriously, sitting at my desk now I can see maybe 5 kits laying about, thats not including whats in storage (rammed in a box in the spare room!).

I normally ignore the dram volt limits listed but they're the sammy ones which are rated for 1.3v stock and I managed to kill one with 1.7v lol. Most likely a gammy module

1.75 on my tg kit in sig for 2600mhz, i thought that was high for ram. But from reading a few posts on here about ram clocking, it seems to be a pretty mild voltage.

pgi947 · 17 May 2014 at 06:48

24/7 1.75v would be about my limit. Benching on has well, up to 1.9v is roughly where it stops scaling on air (as I'm reliably informed by 8 pack). Though my current best psc kit doesn't scale well above around 1.8v.

I found the same with my PSC although both the chips I've benched it on had weak IMCs it topped out at 2400mhz or so with very loose timings on my 3570k and 2222mhz 7-10-8

Corsair Dominator GT 2000mhz (2x2GB) 8-9-8 PSC, by FAR the single worst memory kit I've ever used, best post was 2200mhz 9-10-9 @ 1.9v DRAM, 1.18v (SA/IOA/IOD/PCH). Terrible. 2400mhz wouldn't get a look in even at 11-12-11

stulid · 27 May 2014 at 13:58

Got the tray, but clearly not designed for tall RAM.

Are those GT's the ones you got off MM recently??

Yep

Will see how they fair on z97 before completely writing them off though.

Nickolp1974 · 29 May 2014 at 21:56

Thats a shame

thought they were capable of 2500+ cl8, did you get all 4 paul??

pgi947 · 29 May 2014 at 23:19

Aye, was 2 different kits though, the other kit is a 9-10-9 2200 kit (I think) which is yet to be tested. I'm still not overly satisfied the x-oc is brilliant for memory tuning (outside of the ln2 bios) so I'll leave the other kits waiting while I put the new mb in.

Have another ripjaws kit to test to, 1600c7.

stulid · 29 May 2014 at 23:34

Still waiting on the Pi's to arrive, hopefully not long now.

pgi947 · 30 May 2014 at 06:41

Still? Lol are they coming from Australia on the back of a donkey?

Oh, was gonna say i'll have 'em off you if you wanted to get rid and see what they would do under X79/quad, maybe not now :confused:

2x4gb Trident x 2400c10 (does 2500c9)
2x4gb hyperx 1866c11 (does 2200c11)

Wouldn't rule it out just yet mate, iirc 8 pack ran the same sticks in quad on x79. I'm just after a backup kit to my c6 ripjaws

They are by far and away my most prized possession (memory wise). Completely lucked out finding them too, some random retailer that usually only sell OEM desktops/laptops had them listed for ~£40, came with z87 plastered all over it and a manufacturing date of 2013, which is quite unheard of for psc. Hopefully get a bit more out of them on z97

The guy in the middle with glasses.

I think he's only just posted them to be honest..

Nickolp1974 · 30 May 2014 at 12:35

What's the code on those ripjaws Paul?? I keep looking for some decent ram, want enough for quad, rarely come about now in 12gb sets so I can lose 2 of em. Some perfect storms would be nice!!

Ahh, either way they should be epic to bench with, try the teamau psc 2400-2600 profile on your soc force and tweak on from there, found that the easiest way to get the best from good psc kits.

I'll grab the part codes for you tonight nick, comes in 2x2gb packs as apposed to the usual 3/6x2gb tri kits.

stulid · 3 Jun 2014 at 20:27

Well I got the RAM today, all I can say is it needs time and looks of hard work.

Hmmm.
