oops 2000 MHZ that's epic.. Bad news It is only for i7 965 extreme where the multiplier isn't locked.

Quote:
Memory speed is a direct function of the CPU's BCLK (Base Clock). To achieve high memory speed, either lower the BCKL and raise the multiplier, or raise the BCLK and lower the multiplier. The problem here is that the i7 920 is locked at 20x, and it (at least mine) is unable to achieve a high enough BCLK to get the memory much over DDR3-1600. So, at least on the two X58 motherboards I have used so far, reaching DDR3-2000 is limited to the i7 Extreme Edition 965, which is not locked at 20x. I've gotten to just above DDR3-1600
