pIII Man should be correct on this. Just give you a little info: from the review I've read Kingston HyperX overclocker better than Corsair @cas2; but Corsair can go higher if using loose timing. Anyway, since their RAM chips are produced by same manufacturer (Winbond), it's hard to say this conclusion is right or wrong...

Me fail English? That's Unpossible!

I'll say it again. Watch out for the Corsair PC 3200LL twinx. I Didn't work on my P4P800. Now my mom has errors in memtest with her IS7. I'm very dissapointed. Especially having problems with the comp I made for my mom. And she lives far away. Reciepts are here. Bad Bad Bad.

I bought HyperX PC3500 2 x 512 P4 2.4C OC to 3.0 with stock Hsf. Mem 5:4 IS7 Mobo. Fsb set at 250. Running stable. for 3 + weeks. You may hit 3.2 with stock hsf. Beyound you need better hsf.
