Check xtremesystems.com. A lot of people are using that kit with their DFI boards and getting some pretty good oc's with it. I also believe it's the 1st 2GB kit that can do 2-2-2-5 thanks to the Micron chip. I was also looking at picking up a kit, but I don't really know if it'll be compatible with my Neo2 Plat. Btw, did u read the review over at Insanetek, because the reviewer gives a idea of how the ram oc's?

yeah mate i did

he got 300HTT from the samples he had at the time, i was thinking it could be a fluke but then again im getting word from people that these DDR 2x1024 sticks are realy good sticks and the best 2gig kit.

i cant wait to slap them in my DFI LP NF4 Sli-DR motherboard and start cranking the HTT

Shouldn't the title of this thread be, "Is this good memory I am thinking about purchasing?"

I mean, what is everybody said, "AAIIIEEEEE, no!"
