I've been running running this 6gb (2x3gb) kit in my gigabyte ex58-extreme for less then a year.
One dimm just went bad and i cannot be without a computer while waiting for the rma. (I asked for advance replacement; no go b/c this kit is disco)
This kit is ddr3 2000 (pc3 16000) but the highest i could run it at (stable, at 1.65v) was 1728mhz.
My i7 920 is running at 2.88ghz with no voltage increase. I've never been about trying to get crazy overclocks, but i want to get what i pay for.
So when buying a new kit i dont know what to buy.
Your thoughts are appreciated.
