Well, to be safe and to get that Asera character off my back, I went ahead and dropped my 1.65v 9-9-9-24 1600MHz RAM to 1.5v 9-9-9-24 1333MHz.
NOW LEAVE ME BE!!! Q.Q My system just became worse.

You wont notice it, only in benchmarks and such.

2500K only has a 1333mhz memory controller anyway, you won't notice much.

Oh, kay?
And I actually believe you did the memorycontroller a favour.

This is likely, and I just felt why not, better to let the CPU live longer than kill it over RAM speeds... Originally Posted by tetrisGOAT

Ram is dirt cheap right now if its that important to you. Last I checked. Sandybridge processors with dead memory controllers don't bench

Why did you buy 1.65v 1600's anyways.

Probably since they're cheaper. 1600mhz dimms sell better. I don't know why. Except for the new AMD's, no CPU has a faster memory controller then 1333mhz. Derp. Originally Posted by Sephiracle

I was kind of talking more about the voltage and not the speed. Originally Posted by Majesticii
