@luke - if you relax the subs a little, what's the lowest stable 1333C9 voltage on that kit? @ivanlabrie - are you sure those single-sided A-Data were not Samsung? Would be very typical for 4Gbit Samsung to be stuck at 1250MHz. OT:...

I'm surprised that you even consider stuff like Ballistix or 2000C9 having a quad kit of 2400C8. My 2400C8 PIs are excellent on air but fail to scale to LN2. Do yours have the same problem? 2000C6 Flares - not even google knows about...

@ Belial: I'm sorry for being not too explicit in my replies. As far as I remember, Mushkin did not have any software to measure memory temperature, so I guess you're reading it from heatspreaders via probe or infrared sensor, right? If...

Thermal pads are easy to apply and remove, plus they are dirt cheap - that's why makers use them. Replacing thermal pads with tape won't help as much as organising better airflow around the memory area. The only are where you're going to...

The DDR3-1333 CL7 version of RipjawsX might have almost any ICs, not necessarily Hynix BFR. If you want G.SKill with BFR, I recommend looking for 2011-made stuff SN of which indicate Hynix, i.e. 11xx0240xxxxxx.

What CAS write latency does your board default to when trying 1200/1300MHz? If it's 7, you might fail because of that.

In your specific case, you shouldn't have any compatibility issues running four sticks of PSC 1Gbit memory, it's just that getting four modules up to speed is much harder compared to two.

If you manage to avoid Mpower's random "55" issues, then it clocks PSC as well as (if not better due to better 2V+ stability) an ROG board so I can't see why that wouldn't be possible.
