Kingston HyperX KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX 8GB 2X4GB DDR3-1600 XMP Dual Channel Memory Kit
Cons:-Regular price (even though it's much lower than 2-3 years ago, it's still expensive)Doesn't quite match my previous HyperX 4GB kit, but will not dock a star for that.-It is not exactly as shown, that's why it doesn't match my previous 4GB set.

Pros:-Dirt cheap, PM'd with one of NCIX's sister companies-Low profile heat sinks (no conflict with tower coolers)-Blue to match my previous 4GB HyperX kit, motherboard, GPU, and CPU fans.-Lifetime warranty-Brand
Comment:
I got this 8GB kit from a competitor. The RAM itself is of very good quality and brand (Kingston), comes with a lifetime warranty. This RAM kit gave me no stability issues with my other 4GB set already, so for a total of 12GB, I'm good to go.

Kingston HyperX KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX 8GB 2X4GB DDR3-1600 XMP Dual Channel Memory Kit
Cons:Didn't expect that I have to change the tRFC setting manually to 110ns to get it working.

Pros:Finally an 8GB kit that works fine on my AM3 motherboard (previously had to return 2 sets of G.Skills kits)
Comment:
Running this 8GB kit now fine l 1600MHz 9-9-9-27. Haven't really tried to tighten the timings yet don't think it's necessary.Note: You will have to adjust everything to specification in BIOS, including the voltage to 1.65V and tRFC to 110ns in order for it to work properly. You can also set it to AUTO and it will work if you don't mind the loose timings.

Ordered these memory modules for my HTPC, probably doesn't need 8GB, but since memory price is so low right now, might as well max the ram of my system.Got this on sale for $32.Gigabyte GA-E350NKingston SSDNow V100 Series 64GBSeagate Barracuda ST31000524AS 7200.12 1TBKingston HyperX KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX 8GBApex MI-008 MINI-ITX CaseMSI Btoes 2.1 Bluetooth Micro DongleLG BH12LS38 12X Blu Ray RewriterASUS PCE-N15 300Mbps 802.11B/G/N Wireless PCI-E

Cons:-Looks don't match performance

Pros:-Great Value-Great Performance
Comment:
Overall a great pair of memory. Comes clocked 1333 out of the box, but minor tweaking will enable the 1600 clock without any issues (took me 3 minutes in the BIOS). You can't go wrong with Kingston.

Kingston HyperX KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX 8GB 2X4GB DDR3-1600 XMP Dual Channel Memory Kit
Cons:none

Pros:XMP profileworked without problemfast
Comment:
The best ram I have bought to date. It made a noticeable difference over their HyperX Blu line. Which was also good. The XMP profile loaded without problems, and it fixed some issues I had prior. For example, some programs were a bit slugish, such as Photoshop and Xsplit. Even though I had a 2500k and 4gb of hyperX blu. I picked up this kit, and all those problems are gone. After having used many different 8gb kits in various builds, these are easily the best I have used.

Pros:Great Price, Good Quality Ram
Comment:
Very good ram for the sale price. I was first got introduced to Kingston HyperX when I needed ram for my Alienware laptop. Many many people, in another forum, strongly liked this brand. I found it to be great in my laptop and didn't think twice to put this in my desktop. Very happy with what I got for the money spent.

Cons:- None

Pros:- Amazing transfer speed.- Runs cool with high quality heatsinks.- Since it's Kingston memory : no memtest error.- Kingston's legendary stability and reliability.
Comment:
It's not the first time I buy Kingston HyperX. Every systems that I sell have Kingston HyperX memory, mainly the HyperX Blu series, but for my new workstation, I bought the high performance and high quality Genesis series. Kingston's reputation is well establish in high performance computing and it delivers rock solid performance once again. Plugged 16 GB of this memory in my Asus P8P67 WS Revolution and worked very well. I manually set the timings and voltage in BIOS to get the highest level of reliability and stability. I first went with Mushkin RAM which appeared to be incompatible and giving Memtest errors with my motherboard. I returned the Mushkin and got this HyperX which were in the Asus Qualified Vendor List and remembered me to always go with Kingston memory. I should have bought these sticks the very first day. That would have avoided me several problems and many hours of troubleshooting !You can't go wrong buying this RAM for your high end PC.

What can I say it's Kingston and it runs great.One thing I did notice was it ramps down in size from 1600 to 1333 when used with AMD but that's not the rams fault.

Cons:Didn't really know it was 1.65V beforehand, but that is my fault.

Pros:Very nice with the 2500k! Even on the XMP profile on, at 1.65V, it still runs perfectly. Got 2 sets for 38$ a peice.
Comment:
Great purchase! I should have researched a bit beforehand to know that it was 1.65V but it doesn't matter as it runs just fine with the 2500k and p8p67 board.

Cons:None so far. and I can't think of one.

Pros:Nice looking kit.
Comment:
Bought this kit when it was on sale. Installed to my newly build i3 system and run Memtest86+ to make sure it yields no error. I am very happy with the non-error result even though I had not had a chance to try out higher rated speed of 1600 due to my mother board's spec. All in all, I would say it is a good buy when it is in NCIX's weekly sales. ($49.99 before tax)
