Man, bro, you do realize you may have fried your ram by trying to boot up with that extreme amount of voltage. Do they still work as good as they did before you started upping the voltage above 2.4v?

That much voltage is 'fine' to some guys if you are going to just do a quick bench or something. Really, if you've got a fan on them like he does it will be fine. I wouldn't dare run them that high for prolonged periods, though.
 
ive got a theory.ocz just bins their modules alot tighter than crucial.the ballistix 8500s are crucials top speed.where the ocz 8500sli modules are kind of middle of the pack for their high end modules.so ocz doesnt have as much wiggle room for their top modules.
or maybe im just full of it :D
