UPDATE AS OF 9/26/14.. Well this ram is turning out to be amazing. 2400MHZ no problem but at 8-11-8-26-1t timing
Not bad for some sticks form 2012.

A few weeks ago newegg had crucial ballistix 1866@9-9-9-24 2x2Gb for $29 super cheap for 1866 mem. Now I ordered 2 sets so I could run 3 sticks in my 980x setup. I was playing with timing an clock speeds an this is what I got.

UPDATE changed my motherboard to a gigabyte X58-OC an now this ram is clocking better.
2240@9-10-9-24-84-1T @1.68V

BELOW WAS DONE WITH OLD JUNK BOARD.

2400MHZ @10-12-10-30@ default voltage. Now im guessing this is very good for $60 worth of ram.

Looking at the picture of the memory; I'd go with 1.65V

I have run a bunch of mem benchmarks an haven't had a problem yet. Though my cpu is running hotter now due to the imc being overclocked. Playing with 2133@10-10-10-27 right now.

Ok i'm bringing this back alive. I'm looking to see if anyone still has this ram and if so what kind of clocks are you getting?? i'm going to try this on sandy and ivy even might run it on a few different 1366 cpus again.
