    Just thought I would pass this along. I was running EasyTune 5 and I set the CPU to my new regular running speed of 8x490 = 3920 MHz. However this time my wireless connection dropped. I actually thought I had an unstable overclock. I dropped the FSB back to 488 MHz and the wireless...

    Corsair 6400C4 fails after 25 minutes

    Run at the rated 800 MHz, 4-4-4-12 timings and 2.1V operation, this set of Corsair TWIN2X2048-6400C4 lasted for no more than 25 minutes in Memtest-86 before it started throwing memory errors.
