I think overclockers had some bad batches.
Also, it would depend what cpu and mobo you intend to use it with, and what kind of overclock you are looking for.
If the ram works ok, and you use an e6600/e4300, you have a theoretical overclock of up to 3.6ghz before you start to overclock the ram @1:1.
If you use an e6300, you are limited to 2.8ghz before you start overclocking the ram @ 1:1
Im also looking into these. I think for the simplicity of aftersales I will just go with the corsair 6400 as its only £1 difference from OCuk, and they are gonna be just as good. EVEN THOUGH the GeiL is screaming "BUY ME" cause they seem cool :D
EDIT:
EXCEPT - they are on this week only over at OCUK (£135.11)
ooooooo Im tempted now :D but hmmmmmm I Might have to deal with sending a bad batch back...sigh! what to do eh?
Microdirect are selling it for £136 price seems to have dropped about 30 quid in the last week
I am testement to these being well good overclockers :), I reckon I could get 1100Mhz 4-4-4-12 with 2.3v. Haven't bothered properly overclocking yet.
there down again to under £130Quote:
