Does anyone use the Asus Rampage Formula in conjunction with the above Ram?
Does the learned brethren forsee any issues?

Thanks
 
Weird as Asus + Corsair always goes well.

I had that OCZ and it was total crap, had to return it and there is a stickie in the OCZ forums about Asus Bioses and changes in them that mess with OCZ Memory (was about the 680I and so OCZ claim ;)).

Asus all have their own Bios not Generic so for me Asus + OCZ = never again.

The above Reaper heatpipes do next to nothing, the heatpipe is only touching the Alu Spreader so get little heat.

The newer Reaper X has the Heatpipes touching the actual Memory Chips.

I have tried all sorts inc £400 Mushkin and ended up back on Corsair.
 
I always thought that Asus and Corsair went well together but i have no personal experience of it so thought it best to consult the oracles here.
I'd be interested in others opinions.
 
I run 2 of the 4gig Corsair DDR2 8500 kits on an Asus Rampage Formula with zero issues. Running memory at 2.1v. QX9770 happily running at 4ghz on air.
