Most people like Corsair ram better, since they can overclock higher however at relaxed latency, Kingston doesn't do as well in higher latency, but they've been known to be crazy overclockers at low latency. You're talking about 15mhz overclock, why don't you just buy PC3500 ram(guranteed to run at 433mhz), they're not that expensive anymore.

Impossible period, I was extremely lucky when I got my PC2700 HyperX to 230mhz. With my new OCZ I didn't go as far as i could go with my old HyperX but the new ram is 3700 so. If you want high speed then get DDR4000. Most likely you'll get about 10-20mhz overclock on rams.
