| Modder-ator  | They are just different channels. If you put two sticks of RAM in the two like colored slots (either both orange or both yellow) the RAM will run in Dual channel. As to one set (or color) being better than another, I don't think it really matters. I've seen people argue subjectively back and forth all day about it. But I would say use the two slots of like color that are closest to the processor socket (slots 1 and 3).  |

| Modder-ator | Well, even if your temperatures are satisfactory with high voltage, that doesn't mean that your processor still isn't being stressed big time. High voltage is almost just as dangerious as high temperatures. Even if your on a phase change cooling system and your processor is below freezing with 1.65v, it still won't last very long because of the high voltage being pumped through it. Just keep that in mind when you find an overclock for 24/7 use ;) |

| yeah i lowered to 1.45. MY temps are a very low 22-23c now. However, I sitll can't oc my cpu past 2115 mhz. I'm using 135 * 9. I tried changing to 270 * 8 but that didn't work. IT stopped at the black load screen.
