Yeah, thats what i was thinking, maybe the 680i chipset doesn't cope well with fast ram?

Not saying that my 1066Mhz isn't fast but it would be nice to push it a bit or maybe get cas4 out of it.

And wow, we have a lot of ballistix members in the first 2 mins.

Well, my Crucials I got are i believe picked out because they have overclocked like crazy. At one point I got them over 1100Mhz with 4-4-4-12 @ 2.2v. I think I just got a really good pair of Ballistix.

I should really update my system lol.
