2x2 kingston HyperX1066

The DDR2 BallistiX call for 2.2vDIMM causing them to burn up very fast.

I had killed 4 sets in 6 months before selling them in hatred.

Just because a friend found 4x1 crucial 1066 a bit cheaper than the kingstons and i heard they can do 1200 but if some of you had bad experience...

Similar experience here. Not to mention the fact that running 4 dimms adds strain to the memory controller, so it's harder to get running at rated speed.

Get the Ballistix Red's, I had mine at 1100with 5-6-5-15, 2.1v and they were double sided, pretty sure they were later D9's too.
