So when are we likely to see some actual stock??
When is the faster stuff coming?? Or is this the problem with the above, are they binning?? Which obviously takes time.

Anyone had a play with there new ram??, what model is it and what have you achieved so far??

I am actually testing three very good kits today and will be reporting on them here. It will take time to get full results and conclusions but I am on it now.
 
Gibbo is pushing hard all the brands. I am not sure on ETA though I will ask him to post.
 
Am quite surprised no stock to low stock is available, one would have felt Ram manufacturers would want money.

Imagine if motherboard manufacturers did not release their own X99s on the day of intels cpu launch!

I see around that Crucial and Gskill kits are being expected in 2-3 weeks some claim 12th but think its wrong. Time will tell.

I imagine Intel moving up the release of X99 took some of the manufacturers by surprise.

I'm still surprised they aren't starting to get more stock out - the original release was scheduled to medio September, as I recall. Granted they need to ramp up production, but demand can't be THAT high yet.

Also, it seems G.Skill and Corsair manage to keep the US in stock - Newegg at least has regular stock of the same kits that are all but impossible to dust up in Europe.

Guess there's nothing for it but patience. Hard when the workstation is assembled, and merely awaiting the RAM. :-/
 
Any idea when the avexir platinum range or crucial ballistix elite range are going to be back in stock? seriously looking at an x99 build but the timings on the corsair ram is frankly a bit crap for the money.
 
I settled for some 2666MHz GSkill because the asking price wasn't too bad and they actually had stock. Benches seemed to show it had near-enough-it-makes-no-difference performance to the 3000MHz stuff.
 
Ouch!! Thats not too bad, i'd run upto 1.45v 24/7 so its only a bit over, going to try pushing the Bclk up and see if i can get em all past 80k MB/s :D

Will also run cas11 with a fraction more Volts, tbh i have not even tried tuning down, it works!
