CPUZ said 1.44 volts so I ran the test again and this time it went 2 min. 5 seconds before error.

Damn man, I don't know what to tell ya. May be if you had some other memory or CPU you could test with you could narrow down what might be causing the errors. If the computer is stable doing everything you normally do with it, I guess I wouldn't worry about it since there isn't a whole lot more you can do.

I don't know...As Prime is gong longer and longer for every voltage increase...Try rasing the memory voltage to 2.6v from 2.5. It should do any harm considering 2.6 is the lowest my board will go

When I'm playing games it sometimes minimizes to the desktop which can be deadly playing CS:S but other than that there doesn't seem to be any real problems I can tell. I'll just use it till it dies and worry about it then. I could increase the ram voltage as Lead Head said but I've found no errors with the ram and it ran fine in another computer.

Have you ran Memtest on the possibility of flaky RAM? I don't recall if you did or didn't. Even if you did and it passed, I'd try running Memtest+, which is basically a somewhat updated version (LINK).

First of all Prime is a crap program....just my opinion...but its a program written for INTEL....Skip Prime, if its working fine for you...don't stress right now...we'll slowly go through all the settings and find the issue.
Second, that memory is a great kit, brand new, it was used for two days to write the review....after that it went in a case.

One4yu2c I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.
