Random thought: why not limit the memory clock stage to a certain CAS latency?
This could allow people to use their "casual benching hardware" for top submissions without having to spend the extra money on useless single-sided MFR (cheapest of which is 2800C12 with a pricetag above 200€) and IMC binning.
ver3.24 is surely Micron, is just that I've seen people mistake Samsung for Micron before.
There are quite a lot of ver3.24 kits on ebay but I have never seen any results on any forums before.
The low end chips clock memory very well, 1300 is usually easy on a decent board.
But, you don't have straps on these chips, so with 2933 being the highest available multi, ~1550MHz suicide is max you can hope for.
So basically, to make things simpler you are going to insert the Challenger series between current XOC and Pro leagues that is meant to somehow magically bring money and fame to those winning in their own divisions.
Will it be obligatory for every member to be a member of some division of the Challenger series?
