Comment:
When they function, they work good. Heat spreader included (which is each great and poor - see below). The Corsair brand name has a superior reputation. Lifetime warranty (needed it). There seems to be a reasonably high "infant mortality" rate. The heat spreaders are type of thick; when two such modules are installed in adjacent slots, there is quite little room left inbetween them to permit for great airflow. And poor airflow = poor cooling. Purchased two modules individually; 1 of them failed right after about four months. Also purchased a "matched pair"; one of the pair members died immediately after much less than a year. Corsair honored the warranty in a timely manner.

Cons:the modules wont make me a sandwich even if I ask in a really nice way.

Pros:Price/Value,
Comment:
Over all I noticed a huge gain in performance when tabbing out of a game or running many programs that have a high demand on memory after going from 2g to 4g. if you do anything more demanding then browsing and email give 4g a shot there is a good chance you will be happy. prefetch can also keep a much greater amount of content preloaded also and more available then ready boost can "speed", so common applications you use will load faster.

Comment:
We purchased sufficient of this to develop a couple dozen desktops ƒ sticks per machine) and used some for a couple temporary servers. All worked fine until lately. These dimms seem to be dropping like flies now. All of the dimms passed memtest86+ when they had been installed 1-two years ago but now I have 4 diverse desktops and 1 server that started crashing or experiencing data corruption concerns in the last 6 weeks, I tested them and now they fail memtest. Given that these all began occurring recently I anticipate more to fail soon.I verified it is the memory simply because these identical machines will pass with other dimms (even other corsair xms2 dimms), and we have two various models of motherboard we are working with and the challenge appeared on both kinds, the only commonality is the memory.I am utilized to getting to verify compatibility prior to obtaining memory, and memtesting when you assemble a machine. What I am not utilized to is getting a significant percentage of the memory fail with no warning 1-two years in. This is a rather annoying issue because even if you carry out due diligence up front it can nail you later, and be somewhat hard to diagnose. Hopefully Corsair will replace the failed dimms, but even if they do this is a quite key PITA since I now have to go memtest each and every machine built with these, and we could nonetheless have additional failures down the road.

Any questions and you get an ans at their web website. Any issues and they will RMA you a replacement.

This RAM is solid as a rock. I've lost count of how several systems I've put this in. Even have it in my own technique. None I've had some problems with other Corsair sku's, but not this guy. You can't go wrong with this.

Corsair goods are legend in there construction certainly solid memory, extremely trustworthy, installed perfectly, memory test ran ideal no complications whatsoever, then again it’s what you expect from sheer perfection.

Newegg= The greatest of the ideal leaving the rest to less.

Worked proper out of the box. Tried the OCZ 4gb upgrade and got Bluescreens all the time. Newegg RMA'd the expense back. Ordered the Corsair and it worked perfectly. Will never ever go back. None I can believe of.

Works just fine. I don't overclock or anything, but I'm one of those people who leaves their computer running all the time as properly. Only one of the memory sticks has given me trouble after over 2 years of usage. none for me. When I bought my original two sticks I was receiving a definitely killer deal and now the cost has gone up, but that's just the nature of deals. I can't really complain about that.

None Second kit back after RMAing the 1st kit, and lo and behold, IT DIDNT Function. 1 stick was fully shot and refused to post at any other speed than 533mhz. The other i have yet to test, but it actually posts at stock speed. This is the second kit of this ram which i have gotten, and both kits are faulty. I am not going to bother with wasting my funds on yet another RMA, as i am most most likely going to get the very same factor again.Corsair utilized to be synonymous with good quality. Not any much more it seems.

I recently bought this ram kit to double my computer memory, as I had the same kit already in it. It does the job wonderfully. It is a nice little upgrade to a computer for a rather small price compared to other upgrade I could have done.
