Well, that is PC3700 speed. Any attempt to run the RAM slower than the CPU will sacrifice performance.

I suggest a comprimise! Crucial Ballistix PC4000 runs PC4000 at 2.5-3-3-8, and goes 2-2-2-5 at PC3500 speed. I'm sure if you play with it enough you'll get something in the middle at your in-the-middle speed.

Anandtech also tested Crucial Ballistix PC3200, which is 2-2-2-2-5 at stock speed but overclocks at very good timings. It's probably the same RAM.

Take Crashman's advise. The 3700PT are the worst Corsair sticks you could buy! They can't give them away on E-Bay.
