Works great. I have used this stuff in the 4Gb sticks and had no problems. Bought this when my client asked for a "dump truck" build. Nice & solid.

G.SKILL F3-12800CL10D-16GBXL Ripjaws X 16GB 2X8GB Kits 240PIN DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 Desktop Memory
Cons:Nothing noted it's a 1600Mhz kit, running it's rated XMP completely stable with 0 memtest errors.

Pros:Lifetime warranty from G-Skill
Comment:
It's a 16GB kit and I wanted to stick with the red themed components in my PC, performance wise it's doing it's job just fine and I don't feel that I would've had much if any performance increase with choosing a 2133 kit with a 4790K

Cons:Not the fastest you can get

Pros:reliable and certified by a large number of motherboard manufacturers
Comment:
I got these modules for a new build. I already owned the 4 GB modules in my other PC.They are as solid as a rock.Could be faster, but for the difference it would make for me, these are perfect.

Cons:-ram prices are through the roof

Pros:-it works-low profile ramsticks
Comment:
Its a good kit of ram but ram prices are through the roof as of now. 170 dollars could have easily bought me a good kit of 2133mhz 32gb set. oh well

G.SKILL F3-12800CL10D-16GBXL Ripjaws X 16GB 2X8GB Kits 240PIN DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 Desktop Memory
Cons:- price

Pros:- red scheme that matches my msi z87 motherboard- reliable brand
Comment:
This kit is perfect to go along with my MSI z87 GD65 motherboard, it also matches the color scheme. As I was doing my research of desktop RAMs, G.Skill comes across with many positive reviews for their RAMs. Having 16gb is great for running multiple virtual machines which it's what I'm doing. Other than that, it's quite expensive when it's not on sales, so I recommend waiting until it's on sales, I bought this kit on Black Friday for $140.

Cons:none

Pros:Excellent Quality
Comment:
Got it on sale for good price, with increasing RAM prices, anything to help reduce the price helps. G-skill has always been one of the best RAM providers so can't go wrong with anything they have really, as long as it serves your purpose.

G.SKILL F3-12800CL10D-16GBXL Ripjaws X 16GB 2X8GB Kits 240PIN DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 Desktop Memory
Cons:The color makes it necessary to get a red themed mobo and case unless you don't care. Which in all isn't really a con.

Pros:Looks nice and durable. Enough memory to handle anything outside Ramdisk on large games.
Comment:
After a lot of research, I ended up buying these to put in my Maximus VI Hero because of the color and the user ratings. It is the first time I ever buy a G-skill product and I am not dissapointed.16gb of ram is more than necessary to run any game.

Cons:- Price, if anything

Pros:- Good speed RAM- Seems pretty stable- Looks ok (kind of tacky)
Comment:
I got these on sale for a semi-budget build. They work perfectly fine, and the system flies with an SSD and i3 3225. Not sure if there's anything more that can be said.

G.SKILL F3-12800CL10D-16GBXL Ripjaws X 16GB 2X8GB Kits 240PIN DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 Desktop Memory
Cons:-Tall heat spreaders, but still fits under the NH-D14, but you may need to remove the heatsink to install the ram in the closest slots.

Pros:+Inexpensive+8 gigabytes per stick+Seems to run cool enough+Passed tests d 8-9-8-24 d 1333(vs the 9,9,9 of the SPD)
Comment:
I picked theses sticks up for use with my Maximus IV Gene-Z because my 4 sticks or corsair while very stable could not quite pass extremely high memory load testing(about 7-9 hours before it would fail). The old memory is just fine(as is all my Corsair stuff, it is just a combination of 2 x 8 gig kits(4 x 4 gig sticks. so this is my fault. I have done it so many times it was just a matter of time before I got burned by it) not being a good idea on this board/cpu combo.This gives me just 2 sticks(and the command rate of 1 that goes with it)They also run fine at 1333 8,9,8,24.(I see not reason why cl 10 v 1600 would be any issue) They may allow a bit more tightening, but this is fine for me.This is my first g-skill memory and so far so good(at a great price).

Cons:Does not overclock, at all.

Pros:Good value: you get what you pay for.
Comment:
Overall, this is a very good product as long as you're not into overclocking. I believe G.Skill got the best performance/price ratio for RAM sticks.
