No it was plugged in while running memtest. I am sure it was fluctuating barely as it is hard to get the pins of the multimeter in there good. Only two of the four did this and it was barely at that.

Unfortunately I just found out they don't offer their Advanced RMA for this product like they do their others. They also require you to send in all three sticks unlike Kingston's RMA. So I will be without RAM until either my Kingston's or this get back in. Sux because I have those 4890's going to be winking at me in the corner when they get in. Hell I might miss out on competin in the 01 contest again! :(

Well it sounds like your PSU is in good shape, did the voltage fluctuate at all if you wiggled the connector?

Damnit - I hope the Kinsgton HyperX aren't too fragile, as I am using them right now.
