Hi all,
Can someone share with me what the highest overclock they have achieved with this memory?
I can't get it past DDR888 (4x222Mhz) @ 4-4-4-12 2.0V.
I think the problem I'm having is with the BIOS settings (I have ver. 2507 - latest)

what processor?
I'll fire mine up today for you. You only want to run 2.0V?

I have:
Core 2 Duo E6700 ES
975XBX2 - Retail
Corsair XMS2 PC2 8500 (2x1GB)
Corsair 620W PSU
HIS ATI X1950Pro
Seagate 320GB perpendicular recording drive
Lian Li case
How do I get the most out of this very expensive memory? I had a post about this on the Intel motherboard forums but it didn't take me anywhere. I want to find the ceiling that this board can overclock my memory by.

between 1000 and 1066 has been my max on that board, but at 2.0V I doubt I will hit that.
