Yeah, but I need to grab a 860/870 for the best stuff! Might give it a try tomorrow to see how high these babies can go!

No, I am sure that was from the 2000 Mhz at CL6 or 2400 Mhz at CL9. That would make it the fastest memory G.skils has every made to date.

They should just call this RAM G.Skill Alpha Dog

I really wish manufacturers did a better job at listing all the timings. At least then I'd have a chance of making my Tridents try for 2400:roll:

I think they will sell for sure, I like that my ram runs 2100, but If I could get 2400 at a reasonable deal, I'd bite.

How will it work with a i7 920?

Never mind looked at the chart and it doesn't appear to support 920:(

Yeah, Memory controller won't allow for the triple channel. The Gigabyte UD5/7 is the only two boards that oc over 2000mhz.. You might be able to get some of the boards to oc above 2000mhz, but that would be a 50/50 chance it will do it..

My UD3 does kINGSTON hYPER sticks @ 2100 @ 8-8-8-24 stock memory timings and voltages, it is completely unrelated to any motherboard on if its acheivable, It comes down to the CPU if your cpu can acheive a high OC then bobs yah uncle.

I love it when they fix up the commercial photos and then in reality its still same asian crappy plastic and finishing as when we used Pentium 1.

Nope, its not even CPU, its the board, its the controller, how good the ram can oc via what chips it has... I said it would be a 50/50 chance that a board that is "rated" for just 2000mhz, could get something above that. I didn't say that it couldn't, I just said that it a chance you might be able to get it.

Here, here is a ss for ya.



as you can see, the tridents are at 2200mhz. Memtest it 5 passes and it's solid at those timings. Now, that's what I do when I test ram before I oc. Drop it down to the lowest, and see what the ram can do. Then when I oc, I can find where if it's ram, CPU, or any other factors.. After getting to 4.4ghz, on the same ram & set-up, I see that their is memory dump, irq, page fault. Which leads me to believe that it's now the fact the memory controller can't help it self when the oc is happening.

A good CPU is great to have, but if you don't have ram that can do it, or a board that can hold it.. That doesn't mean squat.. I can even show you 780/90i set ups I had to which people of evga themselves where amazed that I was able to do it. I had a good Chip, yes, but I also had ram sticks that just could do anything I ever asked for it to do.

they seem to be getting the first set of numbers in a good level but that last number needs to be lowered, say to 12.
