XLC and OCZ lead to better OC?
The OCZFlexXLC Edition 1150MHz DDR2 modules run at 5-5-5-18 out of the box and support up to 2.4v. What this means is TweakTown managed to push them to 1200MHz DDR2 at 5-9-9-24, using both passive cooling and watercooling. The benefits of having watercooled RAM seem to apply more to the longevity of the DIMMS than it does to extreme overclocking.
