G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory
Cons:-None

Pros:-Low cost-Low fail rate
Comment:
I have almost completely switched to only buying G.Skill memory. They have the lowest prices I can find and I have yet to encounter a DOA. I'm not sure about their overclock potential but for customer builds, they do the job.

G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory
Cons:None

Pros:Runs at a relatively low voltage
Comment:
First set had a stick DOA, but the second set worked perfectly. Currently running at stock speeds and timings (1066, 5-5-5-15) at 2.0 V on a GA-MA78LM-S2H motherboard. Note that 1066 is not an official JEDEC specification, so it is necessary to manually change the timings for any brand of DDR-1066 memory.

Cons:- None

Pros:- Quality memory- Run stable
Comment:
I bought this pair of memory sticks for my new budget build with a Gigabyte GA-MA785GM-US2H. Good stable memory. I had to manually set it up on the BIOS to run at 1066 but that was expected. Recommended.

Cons:none at all

Pros:very very stable
Comment:
I love this ram. It has ran very well for me. Some ram memory sticks can make a system run like a slug, but these run really great. Very stable, so they must have great chips in them. Seem to be made well

Cons:- DDR2 prices begin to get high

Pros:- Fast- Looks good- Lifetime warranty- Cheapest 2GB pack found here when I bought it
Comment:
Bought this for a budget HTPC, 1 year ago I would have had 4GB for the same price but now it was the cheapest one I could find. Nice RAM from a known manufacturer and I don't have much to say except they work as expected.

G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory
Cons: Difficult to get these to run at claimed performamces

Pros:Cheap price Pretty blue colour
Comment:
These Mem Sticks seem to work OK One just Died however, V annoying. But worse is the Claimed Lifetime warranty From GSkill It ONLY applies to current in production product once they stop making these the warranty is Void. So what's that about 6 months after you buy it IF it's brand new on the markwet product. Next Buy will be a far more Mainstream Brand with a proven track record. Caveat Emptor Kids.

Cons:-color :P

Pros:-price-reliability-performance
Comment:
Great ram for the price, used in a basic business system build. I have yet to receive a dead stick from G-Skill or have one fail from one of my builds. I do not care for the ugly teal color :P but that's minor.

Cons:None

Pros:DDR1066.Fast.Does the Job.Price.
Comment:
I moved from DDR667 to this Memory but my motherboard supports DDR800 Maximum, So i'm not really using the full potential. Running 5-5-5-15 at 400mhz. Much faster then my previous memory. Highly Recommended.

I picked up this RAM for $39.99 and I couldn't be happier. I installed it into a DFI LP Jr P45-T2RS mATX mothercoard. I'm running it at 1066 and it has caused no problems at all. I would highly recommend this RAM.

Cons:I have these on my P5Q PRO, all I had to do was contact G.SKILL to ask what the recommended voltage for the ram was on the P5Q PRO. They replied promply then I adjusted the voltage to 2.06V and set the DRAM settings to manual then DDR2-1066. Ram is very fast and is great for gaming.

G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory
Cons:None.

Pros:Combined this pair with a GA-P35-DS3L and E4400. Had no problem operating at rated speed. Given the price there is little that can compare.Haven't pushed them to see how far I can get, but quite happy with them at their rated speed.
Comment:
First pair of G. Skill ram. Definate solid performance at a great price. No complaints.Had no problem reaching rated speed. Haven't tried pushing these dimms yet since I'm quite happy with their speed. Could have saved some money getting the PC6400 pair, but I like having the guarantee. Paid almost $300 for my 2GB's of DDR so can't complain when paying only $79.99 when on sale.

Cons:none so far

Pros:will run fine at faster timings, price
Comment:
bought this kit, my first gskill a few days ago for my abit ip-35 pro. was a bit sceptical as i've seen it, but have always bought the big names..pleasantly surprised that it will run 4-4-4-10 timings at 500 speed and stock voltage. have not tried the rated 533, but i see no reason with a little more voltage, why it wouldn't run at that and the faster timings..very impressed.
