I just bought the pc3200 hyperX and am having difficulty oc'ing, when I try to oc my 2.4c like I had been doing with my cheaper kingston; it now refuses to post, do you think it's a voltage issue?

Does it run at stock speed? Or are you just not getting a POST?

IF it's posting fine at stock i would bump your Vdimm up to 2.8v that should help stabilize it if it can truly go far...

Run Memtest 86 from a bootable floopy to check for errors..

I changed the cpu:ram ratio to 4:5 instead of 1:1, I also forgot to change the latency down to 2 instead of the 2.5 I had set for my old ram, it was set already set at 2.5V for the ram. Thanks for your help though

Increase the DDR voltage to at least 2.6V, if not 2.7V. Also, try running at the same CAS settings as your old memory for the time being and get the speed you want to run at settled. Then you can tighten up the timings.
