Cons:
None so far.
Pros: Great RAM, no problems so far. Comment:
This was the first time I had built an DDR3 system without having any issues with the ram. I had tried several other bands (such as OCZ) and had many issues with those. I used these RAM for a budget AM3 gaming build |

Cons:
Mail in Rebate
Pros: Excellent PerformanceReasonable Price Comment:
This set of RAM is really doing the job. You may need to go into BIOS to run at 1600 because it is running at 1333 with CL=9 by default. Mail in rebate is the only weakness, I have problem of getting it from them. |

Cons:
- None
Pros: - Cost efficient- Works great Comment:
I got this with my $1000 budget gaming rig and it serves its purpose. Nothing was broken and it worked perfectly fine. A few days later, my brother bought some Corsair Dominator RAM and I'm starting to dig that but it does cost a bit more. Overall, it serves its purpose and works well with my rig. Definitely well worth the money. |

This RAM is very good if you want to do some gaming or something, it handles fine on all my programs and is very fast. The top bit is a bit bulky though. |

Got this for aa cheap budget gamer box. Worked right away, no problems. I like the heatsinks on them, but I guess that's normal enough for the brand. |

CORSAIR XMS3 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory
Cons:
By default it goes at 1333Mhz, need to go BIOS to adjust back to 1600MHz
Pros: Great Ram. It's fast, stable. Seems to be 100% reliable. Comment:
Both sticks works right out of the box. They goes with my Xeon X3440 and Gigabyte P55-USB3. Very good price and under $100 for 4gigs after mail in rebate. But by default they runs at 1333Mhz so you have to manually adjust back to 1600MHz at BIOS. Corsair is a very good brand name. Would buy again! |

Cons:
None
Pros: Heatsinks, Easy to Install Comment:
Runs perfectly on my AMD Phenom II X6 Build, Runs better than I thought it would. Haven't over-clocked it yet, but I am planning on it. I was thinking that it was made for the i5 or an Intel build, but it hasn't disappointed me. I have heard great things about this RAM from these reviews and this is another one of them. Heres to hoping! |

Cons:
Defective kitNot a good overclocker
Pros: Decently pricedGood performanceNice warranty Comment:
I've been using Corsair memory exclusively for the last 5 years and I haven't had any regrets... until I ordered this product.The first kit I received was defective. Windows 7 would freeze, crash and give all sorts of odd error notifications.Memtest 86+ reported a ton of memory errors, so I RMA'd the kit. The second one was fine, though. I upped the voltage to 1.65 in order to reach the advertised timings. All was fine and dandy, but I was still disappointed that a reputable company like Corsair would churn out defective memory products.Works fine with a Phenom II system, by the way. It's not just for Core i5. |

Love Them
Comment:
I have a set of DDR2 from this brand in my budget AMD and they were great. Bought these as part of my hack in tosh build and they work great. Not a gamer, not an OCer, but occasional heavy data processor. For what I do, stable and fast. The only thing is I missed a short window of 109 pricing while shopping, but when all other places had raised the price to 134, your company offered at 114. Keep the competitive pricing |

Good Price After Rebate, but one stick was defective
Comment:
One stick threw some 5000errors after 10 or so tests of memtest86 Together with the other stick they threw out some 1000errors. :( OS would not install with 1 stick (couldbt find certain files etc) but with the other stick only it would actually get somewhere.Got the right timings in bios Good Price. Probably worth the chance , since I got for some 80 shipped |

meh
Comment:
It runs well while it's running. I've got 8GB at 1333 on a p7p55d with an i5 750. I bought these because I saw bad reviews on the OCZs I was looking at and these didn't seem to be giving anyone trouble. I, however, had to RMA a bad dimm right out of the box. I got the replacements which ran great for a couple weeks before I had another dimm completely fail. Luckily, for all these failures I've only had to scale back to 4GB; If my rig was actually down, I might be more perturbed. They've got a good warranty, so I'm only out the shipping cost. I'm waiting on replacements, but hopefully 3rd time's the charm. Overall they're pretty awesome. I get great performance and they seem to run cool. It'd be a better value if I didn't have to keep returning them. I'm still relatively happy with my purchase, but If you do buy these I recommend a burn-in. |

Will not be my first choice again.
Comment:
Purchased these with new mobo-cpu-power supply setup. Worked at a decent speed for two weeks, when one stick completely failed. I have no faith in this brand after trying them out for the first time, as memory failures have never been an issue for me in the past. |

Great
Comment:
I must repeat the first review I read, it says all I can say as I had the same first build. ''Paired with P7p55d Deluxe mobo i5-750. My first computer build and it booted up with zero problems. Still flawless. Set BIOS to use XMP to see RAMS full 1600mhz, if left to mobo will only run at 1333mhz............'' For me, I got the right set. |

Great RAM
Comment:
Paired with P7P55D Deluxe mobo and i5 750. My first computer build and it booted up with zero problems. Still flawless. Set BIOS to use XMP to see RAMs full 1600mhz, if left to mobo will only run at 1333mhz. Bought for value and overclocking ability. Wanted a proven setup and got it. Will probably buy another 4GB package to finish build since happy so far. Shipping was fast and FREE. Can't beat that. |

Pros:great speed Comment:
Overall very happy with this ram. Paired it with an i5 750 and asus p55 motherboard. Timings are a little loose for my likings, but the overall spec of the ram makes up for that with allowing me to push it up to 1600. |

This product runs great on my Asus P7P55 Deluxe MOBO. Works good out of the box and the mobo. I highly suggest this product for first time builders if you want perfomance and quality. |

Outstanding Performance and Value

Teamed this with an i5-750 and am getting 7.5 Windows 7 64 Experience for Memory with the 2 Dimms in dual channel config. The heatshield on these seem solid and well built as well. |

Worked great out of the box
Comment:
Built an i5 rig with Asus p55d pro mobo - originally skimped and bought the OCZ ram for $30 cheaper. After dealing with 4 dead sticks I trashed them(passed the 30 day return period) and purchased 4 of these. No problems, no blue screens, they all worked perfect. If you are deciding between the two spend the few extra dollars and buy these. Avoiding the headache is well worth the money. Trust me. |

Really good Ram
Comment:
This ram works with LGA775 boards, im running this with a e6300 dual core and it blows my other setup with 800mhz ram away, Run Stable at 1600mhz. i had to lossen the timings tho to get it stable but thats cuz my mobo |
I am using this ram with my AMD build. These are not built only for Intel systems like the name implies. Bought to use with my Asus M4A88TD-M motherboard. This board was hard to buy ram for as there aren't many compatible sticks. Works like a charm. Came default clocked at 1333, just had to go into the bios and switch it to 1600.
