Good So Far [Posted on 2008-12-02] I initially did not want to get this memory kit because of all the bad reviews. I received them and they were in perfect condition and working completely, so I am satisfied. It was also a good bargain because the mail in rebate will drop the expense to just around twenty dollars.
Careful. [Posted on 2008-12-04] When i received these they came in two different versions. dead and fried. I'm sure there fine when they work but after spending a month replacing motherboards and processors find out these guys were the problem and by the time i find out it's too late to take em back. so not super happy.
Best Bang For Your Buck [Posted on 2008-12-10] 4GB of ram for under $[...] after mail in rebate is too good to pass up. I just put together a new HTPC last night using these and am well pleased. Left Memtest running all night and there were no errors. DOA sticks of ram should not influence your buying decision. I have purchased DOA sticks of Corsair, Kingston, and Crucial ram over the years...when a working replacement arrives, it does the job just fine. You will most likely replace your system before a non overclocked, working stick of ram craps out on you. Bottom line, if you are not looking to overclock, this ram is a steal at the moment! You can use the money saved from not buying expensive overclockable ram to purchase a faster processor :)
DOA... what is going in on? [Posted on 2008-12-23] I bought this memories with other parts to assamble my gaming pc and guess what? Same as the MSI P43 Neo3-FR that I ordered... Dead On Arrival. On of the dimms works ok but the other is totally dead. I had to RMA my MSI mobo as the dimms, and buy from other place an Abit Fatal1ty mobo and OCZ dimms... Now I can play. Check well about this to be safe of the same issues.
It Wasn't Broken! [Posted on 2008-12-30] Well, after having been sent a dead stick of RAM from another online vendor, I thought I would try Amazon. Well, it shipped fine and works...that's all you can hope for with these sort of things.
