Last night i decided to see how much my ****ty kingston ram can take.

SPD:

200mhz - 3-3-3-9
266mhz - 4-4-4-12

I had it running 274mhz at 3-3-3-9 @ 0.1 vdimm increase, then I got it to 280mhz at 0.2 vdimm, so I knew it didn't have much left.

I had it running at 330mhz @ 4-4-4-9 @ 0.1 vdimm increase, then nothing more! it was stable at 330mhz, but after that, even 1 fsb increase, it'd crash.

Then i put it up to 5-5-5-9, and it wouldn't budge past 330mhz

Anyone know the reason? Lol i kinda found this weird... my cpu is perfectly fine.. i give it enough vcore and fsb isn't bad on it. Its 1:2 fsb:memory bridge
