Gibbo,
Got an AMD F1 setup you can test these in please? 2400 on that would make some nice GPU benchmark right?

Yes it will work. Almost any DDR3 will work in sandybridge too, as long as it is 1.65v or below. I think it is almost impossible to get ram that is above 1.65v now days.
OcUK recommend though that you should ideally use around 1.50V and no more than 1.60V.

2133mhz seem to be my rams limit, I've tried 11-11-11-28 2T @ 1.5v to no avail.
Oh well, still worth it none the less.
Hopefully you guys will be more lucky.
Its the CPU limit more so than the RAM if on SB with a 2600K

Hi there
Just a little screenshot for you guys that I've just done:-
Gibbo, what SB-E processor were you using and what was it overclocked to. I want to use your results as a reference. Busy testing my new Samsung ram now
. OC'd right out of the box as you said so far...

Samsung Ram running at 2133Mhz (10-10-10-27) @ 1.45v
Intel I7-3820 @ 4.3Ghz
Overclocks like a dream and I am not even a fan of overclocking to extremes.
Totally happy with them. Who needs heatsinks!

Those are the exact same timings I'm running, very impressed with this ram.
I was able to keep my 4.8Ghz overclock too which is awesome.

I tried quickly at 2400Mhz but i wasnt prepared to go more than 1.5v. It did not post.
These are fast and i cant even see them in my mobo anymore

my kit arrived today,heres the results,didnt seem to like 2400mhz though but i didnt really try
run at 2133mhz just fine
run at 2133mhz just fine
forgive my ignorance for this....
is it safe to say that higher ram frequencys is more important than lower ram timings?
i.e.
2400MHz (11-11-11-28 1N) @ 1.50v better than 1600MHz (8-8-8-24 1N) @ 1.40v?
also i plan on upgrading my machine to a i5-2500k this week and plan to overclock using a Hyper 212 Evo cooler. will this ram benefit me over say the Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB kit on offer currently?
FYI motherboard will most likely be:
Gigabyte Z68AP-D3 Intel Z68
(4x DDR3 2133/1866/1600/1333/1066 MHz memory modules )
so im assuming the max i can O/C to will be 2133mhz as opposed to the 2400mhz obtainable in this thread by some?
ps. is there a real world advantage of 2133 over 1600?
thanks in advance!

thx for clearing that up, thats what i had read too regarding the sweetspot 1600mhz brings to the sandybridge CPU's
