here's the deal.
its Crucial 1066mhz ddr3 generic. the ones i have, along with several other ppl have Micron D9JNL chips, same that cellshock, teemgroup, and lots of other high dollar ram have... until hypers came out..
the kits that have the same product number now fron egg have come with D9KPL's which are almost identical ICs but are more like the elpinda hypers. they arent 50nm chips but they can run the tighter timings in SOME cases.
i hit 2000mhz with mine at 200bclk wiht 1.71v but later found they ran the same at 1.648v with higher vtt.
the highest i've got them to run at is 2047mhz at 8-7-7-19-1t @ 1.85v
i HAVE ran them up to 2.3v trying to get 2133mhz for a 100% OC and they never even got warm to the touch. i DO NOT run a fan or anything on them. in fact, i sit a fan on them pointing towards the NB and VRMs so there is actually reduced airflow to the ram.
the higher dollar ddr3 comes with D9GTR, D9GTS chips from crucial or samsung HFC0 or newer HFC8 chips. these will perform similar but cost you more because of fancy heatspreaders and LED lights.
the 3x2gb sticks cost $76-$85 depending on the time of the month.
the 3x1gb moduals clock identical to the 3x2gb moduals.
