Can get the sticks and take the sinks off and see.....I've been using GSkill as my primary since about 2008, joined their forums in 2009 as their techs knew little to nothing about SSDs, did support there pretty much the same as here on SSDs and DRAM, they made me an Admin and got some people in that really know DRAM and I keep in pretty close touch, the Rjs go way back (1366 and 1156), the RJ X line was a new one brought out for the release of the 1155 (P67 era), the Tri's came out (early production) out during the Z77/IB era which were to be aimed at Haswell, the higher end Tri's 2800 and up were held off the market till Haswell while they built up stock as the chips for thenm were extremely hard to come by and be binned for the...

(Oh, on the RJs, there was also a nother line (still active) that was oriented to the 2011 socket, and had advance timings a litle better for running under true quad channel) . And if I remember right they changed the chips in the RJ Xs just prior to Haswell along with the SPD info to up the SPD default to 1600, the originals has a default SPD of 1333

No worries ;) Have always had an interest in DRAM, and when I started helping out there, really got more into it. DRAM is probably the least understood component in a rig....even the techs at many of the manufacturers get lost if you approach them about adjusting secondary or tertiary timings, or the capabilities of CPUs in regards to DRAM freqs....it can be amusing ;)
