Ram Tweakers Version DDR3

[revin]

This is the best I could do with the Sammy's with 16GB installed. I'm sure with just 8GB, I could tighten the timings further, and move up to 2133. These speeds/timings seem to be quite stable too, as this system has been crunching all day with no problems,

Thank you for the show!
Should I just give up on the 2133's and try 16Gb of these?
Hell it's the same price for 2x the ram!!!!!!!!!!!
I got till the 25th to return the Mushkins
What to do............................

I think the Mushkins are solid. I'm thinking that your board either doesn't like anything beyond 1866, or there are just timings that still need to be adjusted. I just mentioned it in your thread.
IF the Samsung work with your board, then they may be a better value, considering the cost vs. capacity.

What are the "Samsungs" I'm hearing about (link)?

I noticed that when I had a 8150, for a very brief time. Really good at handling high speed memory, but I was really disappointed with everything else.

Performance is really limited. It's good for memory testing and max clocks but I think it won't make much above 3000MHz as then you have to run with at least 3000 CPU-NB ( and not many boards have that multi except ASUS CHV ). My 8120 is saying big no to anything above 3100 CPU-NB and ~3080 is about max for tests ( at least on SS ).

yesterday's result -> 3046.2MHz , it's this set http://gskill.com/products.php?index=367

Now I'm waiting for Ivy for next ~2 months but I can't complain for BD as a daily rig

Hahah nice sore speed

Anyone try the new crucial sets? I like the "flat" timings, 9-9-9-27, and I really like that the 8GB sticks have the exact same timings! That's pretty much unheard of for that density. It's usually one or two notches above the 4GB sets.

No, nobody has tried the 8GB sticks because everyone knows that TPUers do not have that kind of money. That's why they're here.

On topic: Anyone got recommendations for the currently available 12GB kits for my 970? I think I have really good IMC on this one. Can drive 6 sticks to 1866 with only about 1.3v VVT. My 920 did have a good IMC, but couldn't do that.
