Crucial Ballistix 2x1GB PC4000 kit gone bad (merged)
grimpy replied to jhbodle's topic in Processors, Motherboards and Memory
not sure what the rma process is like in the us but i just got off the phone with them in the uk. give me a rma number straight away and told me to send them off and they`ll send a new set out. usually takes 4-5 days to get your replacements in the uk. -

i fitted one last week on mine works perfect. -
but u could move your gpu to the bottom slot as ive done on mine,no performance loss and gives the chipset more room to breathe.

works great for me also. opty 146 - 260x10 2.7v on the ballistix.

just use AS5 it`ll be ok.

Tired of noisy chipset fan? DFI nF4 solution (modem warning!)
grimpy replied to GXP345's topic in Overclocking and Cooling
i think sli only works with 2 identicle cards. -
ive just fitted a zalman passive cooler on mine,just the same temps as the stock fan maybe slightly less and no noise:
