It sucks, its out of the three models of Gskill the one that will give you the least OCing, very limited.
It wouldnt surprise me if yould have to run it at higher voltages (even that it doesnt respond much to them) to get at stock speed.
The lowest binning in the Gskill DDR2 family.

out of topic. can we set ddr2 800 to ddr2 1066 without increasing cpu fsb? so that the fsb:dram will be 1:2 ratio?

i'm using e6600 and if i buy asus/abit mobo which are supporting ddr2 800, can i use the ddr2 800 freq. at stock speed or it will run with ddr2 667/533 freq.?
