Ok, I need a completely UNbiased opinion on what RAM can actually make it to 275FSB or Higher completely stable. I had my ElCheapo Corsair "Value Select" doing 267 but that was the ceiling for it. I bought this Kingston HyperX PC4000 (2X256) based on RAM testing that Maximum PC Magazine did and OMG......It runs at EXACTLY 250FSB with SPD timings! Anything else is a hard lock! Even 251FSB at SPD is a Hard lock! :(

So, I Plan to RMA these POS's back to Newegg and for about the same amount of cash ($153) I want something that can go with my 2.4C above 270FSB.

TIA

4200EL for OCZ, most modules seem to be hitting 280fsb or higher.

Remember they are only guaranteed to hit 267 but they will still have a little left.

Hmmm. I wish I could exchange my 4000EL for those 4200EL but if newegg does not have them. :sad:
