4GB XMS3... don't need 8gb and people who want these high profile ram sticks amuse me

My ram is running at 1.6ghz and the CPU at 4.2ghz. Plus with it being low profile, the heatsink overlapping isnt an issue.

8GB XMS3, cost me £63

I did want the XMS3 memory because of it low profile height,,
But the 8GB (2x4GB) XMS3 kits where out of stock at the time i made my order,,,

I would like the Corsair Vengeance for my upcoming SB build.

What stops me is the clearance for my cooler i am thinking of getting - The DH-14.

So i may get that Geil value stuff or XMS3.

lollox · 5 Mar 2011 at 15:29

4gb of XMS3, might even treat myself to 4gb more.

maj · 5 Mar 2011 at 18:40

8GB of GeiL as it was on offer.

I have a DH-14 and Corsair XMS3 ram and it's working a treat, recommended.

What's the max settings u guys can run your ram

I bought the Corsair Vengeance dual channel 2x4gb 1866mhz kit. The sabertooth p67 board supports it but im a bit worried now cos on the intel site it says the 2600k cpu only supports 1066 and 1333 memory... gulp. I do know a lot of people bought the 1600 version and had no problems so fingers crossed mine works ok next week when I assemble it

hernaldo · 9 Mar 2011 at 19:30

16GB (4x4GB) G.Skill RipJaws 1600Mhz - 9-9-9-9-24

...Had constant issue with it for a few days, no post, BSODs...XMP profile not detected correctly (detected 1333mhz)...

Suddenly, after doing a cmos reset, all works perfectly, cold boot issues, BSODs, XMP all working perfectly. (bios 1305\Asus P8P67 pro)

Vengeance 8gb kit - personally I hate the heat-spreaders but there's not much choice when you're looking for 8gb kits that run at 1.50v.

Anyone running the XMS3 8gb kit at 1.5v?
