I bought this for a new rig I built a month ago, I've had no issues with it at all and when if I feel the need to upgrade further down the line I'll more then likely just buy these sticks again.

Cons:none so far

Pros:Pretty reliable and runs as described clock on an Asus P5Q-EM HTPC, runs quite well under Windows 7.
Comment:
I got those sticks from a surprise deal and I ordered 8 gigs of them, I had problem first because my motherboard wouldn't support more than 4gig, so I changed the motherboard for an Asus P5Q-EM and the Asus would love them immediately. I also running Windows 7RC x64 and I am loving it. Corsair never let me down once again.

Comment:
I got this on sale with a Mail-in rebate. Have not receive the rebate yet but the DIMM seems to work fine. I am running a big box machine which is not over-clockable, so I don't know much about the potential speed this kit can offer.

Comment:
This is the first time iv bought the better type of ram and I cant believe I haven’t got it before I have been missing out, if you got the money now I suggest you go get a pair for your gamer rig, the norm just doesn’t do anymore.

Comment:
Purchaed my first set about a month ago to upgrade my dell from the 3gig 533 it came with. Replaced the Dell ram with these and everything worked great 4gigs of ram for this price with rebate is a steal. Ended up purchasing an additional set to increase my system to 8gig Max my MB can support as i am running the windows 7 64 beta and it works flawlessly ran memtest with absolutley no errors. I would highly reccomend puchasing a set of these sticks, for the price/performace you won't be sad you did.

Cons:none for the price

Pros:Cheap after rebate, 4GB kit, corsair quality and warrenty
Comment:
for $20 after rebate, there is no reason whatsoever not to get a set of these. paired with an E5200 on a P5Q Pro and working flawlessly at default voltage. Haven't tested how high i can get em yet, but even if they only do 800, it was stil worth the price easily. Hope they have another MIR for these soon so i can pickup another set.

Cons:none at all.

Pros:It works well.
Comment:
This stuff works great. Awesome in fact, for $9.99 if my rebate comes through! At $50 I'd call it very competitive.I am using XP Pro SP3 x86 so I can't use all 4GB but at today's prices why wouldn't you buy 4GB considering the minor price increase compared to 2GB?I have had no issues with it whatsoever. I have not oc'd this RAM so I can't speak to that.It is better than the gold OCZ I bought. Both were rated at 5-5-5-18, but the OCZ runs at 6-6-6-24. This Corsair runs at the stated 5-5-5-18, on a P3M78-EM.This stuff works great. Awesome in fact, for $9.99 if my rebate comes through!

Cons:- Ugly (for those who care).- Ramsinks could be painful to remove.

Pros:- Inexpensive with 30$ MIR- Very stable - Good timings- Quality product
Comment:
This is a great product, as always with corsair its very stable yet has interesting timings, it keeps quite cool but the ramsinks are a bit ugly and if you want to change them for something more advanced it could be a bit hard.

Pros:4gb, price, runs with no errors, lifetime warr
Comment:
4GB of DDR2-800 for 20 bucks cannot be beat. Runs at advirtised specs and flawlessly in a Gigabyte 780G board. With 512mb of it dedicated to the video ram, remaining 3.5gb is perfect for any 32 bit OS (max).highly recommended, although rebate can only be used once per period per household.

Cons:None

Pros:Sale & Rebate Price
Comment:
For the sale & rebate price around $20 the price is excellent for 2x2GB of DDR2 800 memory.The only warning I'll give is the same one I give for all memory nowadays...test it at rated timings, speed/frequency, and voltage on 20-40 passes of memtest86 version 2.01 or later first. I've found about 35% of all memory modules I've bought over the last 18 months to be defective.Getting the 1.5% RMA insurance if you don't have NCIX VIP membership helps.

I bought this memory kit for a budget computer. It is very good for the price. You can't overclock it but it is.. overally fast enough for an internet surfing computer. I was surprise to see it so cheap, you'll only have to wait for the EVER LASTING MIR.

Comment:
Great price! (well, assuming MIR works out). Didn't think 2x2GB RAM would drop  so fast ($45 less $30 MIR)Great if you're on a budget to build a PC.I've always trusted Corsair-branded RAM. Never had any problems, and I've been a Corsair consumer for 5+ yearsWould definitely buy again or recommend friends/family, especially if sale price comes up again.
