From the Newegg sale sheet this morning, G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133 (PC3 17000) Model F3-17000CL9D-4GBXL (timings: 9-11-9-28) are on sale for only $54.99 shipped! Promo code: EMCKGHA58 . They're not the tightest latencies, but WOW that's cheap! Their big brother, the 8GB kit, did quite well on a Sandy Bridge setup.

Not a clue. I've put up to 1.72 for short sessions through a Pi kit I have without issue. Far from the same sticks though. Haven't had a pair of these to push. SB doesn't move very far on bclk and 2133 is the highest multi on a lot of boards (ASUS goes to 2400; haven't played that high yet tho).

I didn't know any P45 boards used DDR3 RAM; wasn't X48 the main DDR3 SKT775 setup?

There are a few P45 ddr3 boards out there. Not many, but some.

I'm curious how well these tighten up timing wise. Someone should buy some real quick and see if they'll do more like 8-9-8 or 7-9-7.

No group buys permitted, too many problems in the past.

Thank you; missed that earlier.

Just marked the thread expired, but at current non-discount-code $70 shipped, they're still a pretty good deal.
