I put these in a Sabertooth P67 and they were right away recognized. Haven't had any troubles so far. It's 1600, but I was reading on-line that going greater doesn't equal considerably performance at all with the 2600k. 2600kMSI 6950Asus Sabertooth P67Patriot 8GBVertex two SSD

Works flawlessly with my new i5-2500k method(at 1.65v and 1600-9cas). I bought this set to add to one more patriot set(identical sector five but 2x2gb) and now got 12GB of 1600 ram purring along with out a single problem on new i5-2500k method. All modules have passed memtest86+ full tests(search online for this wonderful cost-free tester-make certain its + and not standard(will not work with new asus mobos otherwise). Cant say enough great things about this(havent tried other patriot ram ever) - works as it must with out any complications whatsoever! None! If you have tight space(as i do following installing Corsair A70 cooler)- take pair of pliers and gently(gently you monsters) rock the black fins back and forth 1 by 1(the come in non connected pairsྮ pairs-28 individual fins)) until they snap off(well break off) at the very bottom(fin + 1mm)-now your RAM is as high as green PCB board itself and fits this way under my monster 120MM side fan on A70 cooler. The sides of heatspreaders are glued on so will remain on even soon after all the fins are removed this way. Do not try to rip the sides off as it may harm the RAM chips. Works at 1600 without having overheating 24ǝ for more than a week now. The protruding fins of the heatsinks (while seeking cool) do not serve considerably of a purpose as even without having them the remaining side sinks remain cool to the touch even although running the RAM benchmarks. DO NOT attempt to remove the heatsinks fully and if you dont understand what i meant - ignore whole factor as you WILL void the waranty and might kill the RAM.

Excellent RAM. I am running 16GB on my system (see below) and it works flawlessly! I haven't tried overclocking it but and I am running it at stock speeds, timings, and voltage Ƒ.65V). I haven't run into any issues even with my overclock ƕGHz i7 2600K). Just remarkable (and cheap)! Certainly none!

Bought this RAM on sale for a under โ with MIR. Ran it for five hours on Memtest86+ four. with out any issues. I managed to get the timings to run at 8-8-8-24-1T with out any alter in voltage, nonetheless stable. Not as quick as my previous Mushkin sticks with the exact same speed at 7-6-6-18-1T, but these have twice the capacity and don't want 1.9V! The distinction is under 1fps anyway.

Nice heatsinkCompatible with MSI P55M-GD45 motherboardRuns fantastic underclocked at 1.5V too. RAM heatsink could block some CPU coolers - check clearance. Setup and ran memtest overnight with passing outcomes. My program is set for 1284 Mhz with 7-7-7-22 timings. I would attempt for additional, but my MSI P55M-GD45 is restricted to 160Mhz bus speed due to no over-current protection.

Installed with out a hiccup. Clocked at 1681mhz, though I had to tell the board to recognize 1600mhz initial. Heat sinks are a little tall. Had to reverse the fan on my cpu cooler. That's not patriot's fault, the socket need to not be that close to the DIMMs, just an FYI. I payed 80 with a 20 rebate. The price has gone up a little. Too poor for you.
