Comment:
it will final longer if run at 800MhzRated at 1066Mhz... it does what it does it Runs really very good at that frquencyI have overclocked to 1134Mhz And it runs steady sufficient but maintaining it from now on on standar scince i want stability. Cant see the the Integrated Circuit board simply because of the heat Sink.... The Warranty asks you to say that chip name.... ( The Black Chips in the Circuit board of te Memory) But you will have to take out the heat Sink to llok at it. Kind of tall!... but I have Managed to make it appropriate... Scince i have a Custom CPU heatsink and fan.

It does operate @ 1066 with 1.8v doesn't have to be 2.2v. Great heat-sinks. Wasn't totally free!! I in all probability wont over clock it any but the prospective is there 1066 speed really should get us via till DDR3 and boards +processors get in a cheaper marketplace!

Really cool looking as effectively as performs extremely properly. Doesn't feel cheaply produced and is quite rapid. I could feel the distinction quickly soon after installing. None that i can believe of. I bought the 2x2gb sticks and it came with a free 2gb usb jump drive :)

Cons:Check to make sure the extra tall heat sinks from these fits with your particular setup inside your case. Not compatible with every mobo/bios (Refer to Kingston website for compatibility list). In my case it has no problem in 3 of the systems I've built. (All Asus mobos) newest BIOS.

Pros:High performance DDR2 8500 Spec. Class leading advanced heat sinks. Stable and reliable for 2+ years and counting.
Comment:
Great performance and stability at a reasonable price. If you don't mind paying a little extra for those fancy heat sinks, these are the one of the top choice for PC enthusiasts.

Comment:
So far it functions as advertised Was unable to run at 1066 due to my Gigabyte GA-MA790X-DS4 Mobo. The board info says that it can run 1066 mem but so far no luck. I was capable to get it to run at 800+ due to some aid from a Gigabyte forum. So, its not seriously a con for Kingston just a warning to other folks who have a board that won't run 1066 even although it says it will. Newegg as often gets it to you quickly, often.

Straightforward install. Initial boot was smooth and errors. A couple of tweaks and my Intel Core two Quad Q6600 is running incredibly stable three.38GHz. I can reach 3.7GHz, but I rather be a little conservative. Voltage is 2.375v and all other voltages are on Auto. None This is the initially Kingston Memory and I will acquire once more. Setup:Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, EVGA 780i, 2 WD VelociRaptors 150gb, 2 WD Caviar 640gb Blacks, 1 WD Caviar 750gb Black, Antec 1000 PSU, two EVGA 8600GTS Video cards in SLI 2, Case Antec Nine Hundred, Memorex 52x, Acer H243H 24" 1080P HD Display.

8 Gigs, Fast, appears cool..... Had to nurse them into my my motherboard 1 at a time.... not Kingston's fault, much more like my mobo's manufacture. installation took like 4 times as longer then anticipated, (having to clear CMOS, set voltage and timings and adding one stick at a time) but they run properly so far.....

Comment:
I got very lucky, in contrast to so quite a few other purchasers, my four sticks all in fact work ... as opposed to so a lot of other people who have bought this ~@!#@#$#. Like somebody else mentioned, read the other critiques. This is DDR2 800, NOT 1066. Quite much false marketing. My 8GB gags on any setting higher than 950 and adjust.Newegg is wonderful, as generally ... but if this had anybody BUT newegg, I'd have read the title, and performed investigation just before, I dunno, believing that mem advertised as pc2 8500 is essentially pcs2 8500. Really hard to believe that I'll now have to commence fine line reading to make certain that newegg is not just passing along false marketing.This is like selling a sports auto as "capable of 170MPH," the reading the customer manual and seeing "oh yes, if you use nitro, it will do 170." ALL automobiles will do over 170. Drop them from the plane. That's not the point. This marketing is still bogus. We'll see how badly we all get doinked about on the rebate. But for that, I wouldn't have purchased this stuff.

First off, I just about never ever leave critiques. I think the final I did was back in 2006 ...Extremely hugely encouraged RAM. I am not usually a customer who buys according to brand, and this obtain was no different. I do like, even so, that Newegg regularly provides the lowest rates for brand-name RAM. On top rated of that, they occasionally run excellent Shell Shocker specials.I bought my Kingston RAM for a low total of less than fifty bucks apiece for both sets. (This was after rebates.) So even with the gradual price-hiking that happens industry-wide with aging RAM technology, this set was a definite steal.I personal a ASUS P5Q Pro Turbo motherboard, which is notoriously finicky with non-branded RAM, believe me I've attempted to run the affordable stuff off the Bay. I also personal an ECS motherboard that I run in another laptop. Two non-branded four GB modules from that web site operate excellently, for a total of 8 GB.(Continued in Other Thoughts ...) Absolutely practically nothing. Anyway, after receiving the RAM I quickly began playing about with the settings. I've verified and the most prevalent settings you've read around the evaluations on this solution are right.- Set the timings to 5-5-five-15- OC to 1066 MHz (maybe additional)- Let the voltage sit at Auto (mine is running at two.3 by itself according to monitoring applications)- Run Memtest86+ to guarantee you have very good modulesThe massive heat-spreaders assure that the RAM stays cool despite the additional OC'ing load.My technique:- Intel Core two Quad 9300 @ three.33 GHz- 8 GB 1066 MHz Kingston RAM- ATI Radeon HD 5570 Graphics Card- 500 GB Seagate HDD- 700W OCZ StealthXStream PSU (with lotsa AMPs ... important!)So! It was a fun overview. Possibly I'll start out leaving these far more usually. =)

its a good obtain, but is not at 1066 speed, has to be oc'ed but wished there was much more documentation, on what the oc settings need to have to be for 1066... or would an individual share that info as nicely on here wished an individual did.. but other that that Linux nevertheless runs excellent and quick at the 800 speed just the 800 stock speed, but not actually a con, and lack of documentation on how to do so, and at what settings far more documentation on the 1066 speed woulda been good..

PriceLifetime warrantyQuickly w/ two sticks @ 1066Top quality Does not run at 1066mhz 5-5-five-15 with four sticks Ƙ gigs)Ram is rated for 800mhz but was tested at Kingston to assistance 1066mhz speeds.-1 egg for this getting ddr2 800mhz w/ the possibility to OC to 1066-1 for all the BSOD's I got and how significantly of a headache it gave me. It's frustrating to look for 1066 and see a fantastic name like Kingston (Ive often gotten kingston and never ever had a problem) only to be disappointed when I added my other two sticks and tried to run 5-5-5-15 @ 2.2v only to have BSOD immediately after BSOD. The ONLY stable timings I was capable to use with four sticks in @ 1066mhz was 7-7-7-20 @ 2.2v. Ive decided now to just run them at 800mhz (sadly) at 4-4-four-12 @ 1,8v. Given that 3dmark 06 was the only thing I had about to stress test it, I truly got far better marks at 800mhz 4-4-4-12 then I did at 1066mhz 7-7-7-20. Guess to every single his personal although. Although Im still particularly disappointed with Kingston on this. I wanted 1066, not somthing that can be OCED to 1066 and bring about me a enormous headache. Will go w/ a different business next time.Specs areEvga 780i For The Win Mobo (wont let me abbv it)Quad Core Q6600 two.four (oced 2.7)Evga 8800 GTX 768 ƒx SLI)WD Black 7200 rpm 1.5 TB1200 watt Tagan PSU

2 Sticks ƔGB) runs stable @ 1066 on two.2v. 4 sticks ƘGB) will only run stably at 800MHz on two.0v with five-five-5-18 timings. Dual-channel 鳀bit Ganged) still works well at this speed. This is not exceptional to this RAM. I had the exact same challenge but with 8GB of Corsair RAM. However, this Kingston was less difficult to configure and ran stably virtually proper away. AND with these great Heatsinks runs Substantially cooler than the Corsair.To clear my Sunbeam HDT style CPU HSF I grabbed a Scythe 120mm x 12mm slim fan and swapped it out for the stock fan on CPU HSF.

No comparison for Kingston is truly King in the industry. It arrived safely and installed on the identical day.. Because a week, I'm operating on it.. Method speed multiplied.. It's genuinely the very best deal for the money.. It has a hip of cooling blade on it.. Its superior to work but hurts when installing. B'coz of hight it's effortless to shake and tough to hold robust as regular a single. I am really looking for my configuration and I got this add in the e-mail. I did not get my mail in rebate, coz I sent it 2days ago..

Accurate, it is excellent memory, but without work (As has been documented from many consumers of this item) it needs BIOS tweaking to make it show 1066. This is what limits my rating. Otherwise, low cost and efficient. The 800 mhz vs 1066 mhz factor is a major downer for me. I now have it working appropriate, but I know many novices that would not be able to do this. As I said, superior functioning product, just don't consider one ought to require to tweak to amke it operate as advertised.
