So, I just recieved some Reapers I bought from the forum today, he said he didnt play with them much, so he wasnt sure what they would do..

Stock speed is 800mhz 6-8-6 is what the sticker says. They didnt go too far at that speed. They also didnt like 7-7-7, or 6-6-6 like my Hypers do. I then tried 1000mhz 9-9-9-24 and bam, she fired up no problem :) I tried 8-8-8-24 and it was a no go. I tried 8-9-8-24 and it worked like a charm too! I went back and tried 7-9-8-24 expecting it to fail, but sure enough its working great! I havent tried past 1000mhz, and I havent given more then stock 1.65v, and all testing was done with 1T :) They wont run 1000 7-9-7 tho :mad:

:D

So for now they are running at 1002mhz 7-9-8-24 1T @1.65v :thup:


 
@freeagent,
There were many 1600 6-8-6 or 7-8-7 1.65V 2GB stick kits at some time from most producers like OCZ, Mushkin, PDP, G.Skill ... and most were on PSC IC. It's probably some lower binned PSC XEE but have chance for ~2133 9-11-9 1.65V. They're scalling till about 1.75V ( depends from IMC and cooling ). You can try 2000 6-9-6-24 1T 110-120 tRFC but 1.7-1.75V and for that you will need high VTT like 1.55V+ ( well for Gulftown maybe lower ;) ).
For 24/7 it's much better to keep them @2000 8-9-8-24 1T 1.6-1.65V. Not so big performance difference but much easier to set them stable and can use much lower voltages.
Here I have something similar that you can look at for some settings compare http://www.overclockers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=652855 .
Have fun with tweaking :thup:
 
That's solid!

Thanks man! It was a surprise I wasnt expecting :D

Thanks for the link! When I had my old Adatas, your link helped me to get them to 9-10-9-25 @ 1050mhz :thup: I am not sure if they would have gone further, or if it was a mem controller limitation. I dont think these will scale too much farther with tightish timeings, later on I will loosen em up and givverballhair :)

Well, it looks like these ones like life in the fast lane too :thup:

Just needs some tweaking, they are still at 1.65v and dont seem to mind at all :D




Another thing I noticed too... My Hypers suck alot of current.. Usually when I am stressing with stability apps, my rails are constantly at the lower end of the safe side, but with these stix in place, everything stays nice and level..
 
Nice clocks :thup: ... on 1.65V it's about the same as most 2000 8-9-8/9-9-9 PSC kits. Try CL8-11-8-28 or 9-10-9-28 1.65V if you wish to keep this clock or tRCD 12 for higher. Gulftowns have nice IMC. I wasn't able to stabilize any of my kits @2200+ using i7 920/930/950 while most passed 2500 on AMD/990FX setup.

That was my mistake, 2300 was no good for the long haul at those clocks and volts. 7-9-8 @ 1000 is rock solid :) I will try and nail down 2200 and see what they will do :thup:

I agree, I only had a 965 before this cpu, and it wasnt up to 2k ram at all, but then again, I was kind of a wuss with qpi volts back then :D
