I am wondering what a good max voltage is for my Corsair TwinX Dual channel kit of PC4400 (2X512). Right now I run a max of 2.7.

I guess i should give more info. Stock Heatsinks, no active cooling but I have the Antec P180 so it has decent airflow in the case. I never felt the ram to see how hot it is, but even if it did it would prove inaccurate since my temps go down when the case is on.
This ram is said to run 'stock' at 2.75 volts, that is, it will run at 550mhz effectively. I think I damaged my ram before by upping the voltage too much (Actually I think it was gigabyte's fault. The damn votlage defaulted at a rediculously high number) and I am worried about breaking this set as well.
For a max I would think with a good air flow case you should be able to use around 3.0 if not more.
