Nice set of RAM although the timings at 1600Mhz could use work, IMHO. Personally, I prefer DDR3 1600Mhz RAM with a minimum of CAS 7 and preferrably 8 - or lower - for tRCD and tRP since I don't overclock RAM and prefer to have an overall snappier system with the lower latencies.
 
Does RAM speed have any impact on gaming performance at all? I was under the impression that at this point, the only area where it made any difference at all was in servers.
 
ordering a set for a Z77 build wasnt easy for me, thier site, newegg & amazon says " Only compatible with Intel X79 " about the Viper Xtreme Series Division 4 but when I asked they said "designed specifically for Z77/X79" so I ordered it though it has a high voltage (1.65@1866) compared to most of the other brands.

looks like this new Viper 3 line will fix the high voltage but where is the super speeds modules? the new Dominator Platinum reached 3k
