Okay so I bought some memory that was not the best (Kingston HyperX
KHX8500AD2K2/4G). When I bought it I thought it was 1066 but when got it and installed it it was actually 800mhz. A little pissed I just changed the timings (7-7-7-20 2.0v) and like magic it was running stable as could be. About six months later it took a crap and I rma'd it. Kinsgton send me the same stuff back, same model number anyways. The timings and voltage wont work anymore, I can boot into windows but in a matter of twenty minutes I am seeing a blue screen. Any help would be appreciated. This is the only piece of hardware I have "overclocked" I don't want the most badass I just want it to do what it's supposed to.

Phenom II x4 940
Gigabyte GA-MA790GP-UD4H
Kingston HyperX
KHX8500AD2K2/4G

I suppose you could have degraded th ram by applying so much voltage. I would recommend bumping up the timings up to 999 and try to drop the voltage a little.

You shouldnt of mesed with them, it offers almost no improvement.
