Oh, what a bummer! I am guessing that what a lot of peeps are doing is leaving most settings on auto and ending up with really high vtt and jacked up vdimm causing early failures.

Mine failed today..... (Link)

I have not over v'd them at all! In fact it scared me to go to 1.66 I am such a noob...

Killer customer service for them to post that!! It helps take the sting out a bit. I mean after all, I did buy the second best RAM they offer. The last thing I expect for $350 (For RAM mind you!!!!) is a failure this soon. It would be one thing if I was torching it, but I ran them in the range of 1952-2085... Nothing out if the range, and I ran them 24/7 at factory settings....

I still have not "Taken them out to race" yet.... cry...

I have applied for an RMA, have not yet received any contact other than the automated system.... I am sure I'll hear from them tonight or tomorrow...

Well I suspect you are maybe close to half or a little less correct, and the other half or more is the fact that the process either isn't mature or early batches were fubarred.
