Wow I have been not having good luck with G-skill....
I had a bad stick with my f2-6400cl4d-4gbpi-b and had to RMA. The set you sent was perfect but didn't OC at all so I spent 120 bucks and bought 2 of the f2-8500CL5D-4gbPK kits and ran them under spec (at ddr28000) to stay synced with my fsb and it worked great....til tonight.
I have been getting an error here and there for the past couple of days but nothing I did not attribute to the buggy game I have been playing (Fallout 3).
Well I was surfing the web and my computer hard locked and I had to press the reset button to get it to turn off. I then blue screen before windows could load. I go into the bios, set stock speeds and drop the memory to ddr26400 speeds...still blue screened. I ran a repair and it found some file corruption but when it was fixed it still blue screened.
I then ran vista's mem diag and it found errors within 3% of starting.
This is at ddr26400 speeds!!
I then ran memtest and it started erroring almost immediately.
I replaced the f2-8500cl5d-4gbpk kits with the old f2-6400cl4d-4gbpi-b sticks...and booted right up. No errors.
It is RMA time again isn't it?
