I'm looking to achieve 2400MHz CL11 OR 2133MHz CL9 on quad channel on my X79. I do this by doing voodo ram mixing. I have the following kits:
G-Skill RipjawsX, XMP: 9-11-11-1.65V 2133MHz (2x4)
Corsair Vengeance, XMP: 11-11-11-1.5V 2133MHz (2x4)
AData XPG, XMP: 10-11-11-(something) 2133MHz (2x4)
Right now I'm mixing the RipjawsX with Vengeance. My memory is at 10-11-11-32 1.65V 2133MHz, and VCCSA is 1.1V. I have decided that for fun I want to be able to achieve better memory speeds on quad channel. With the current set I can do something like 12-13-13-32 1.67V but VCCSA is 1.2V, don't want to go over that. I thought that maybe the Corsair sticks are holding me back so I bought an AData kit but I was unable to get it to work completely (also those memories are single rank, the rest of the kits are dual rank, not sure if they play along well).
Now I'm going to get G-Skill Sniper (2x4) that if I remember correctly has an XMP of 7-8-7-24-1.6V 1600MHz single rank. I am buying everything used so it's not a big deal to me and I like the experimenting. From your experience, and if you try to predict, which one should be the better overclocker, the CL7 1600 or CL11 2133?
Thanks!
