Cons: - Does not like to be overclocked
Pros: - Works well, provided the right settings Comment:
I bought this looking to save a little money on DDR2-1066 RAM thinking I could overclock it to match that speed. Turns out that it doesn't like that very much, and crashed regularly. To get the best out of it still requires some work, however; it defaults to DDR2-800 speeds out of the box. Manually setting the speed in BIOS to DDR2-1000 works well, provided you bump the DRAM voltage to the recommended 2.1V (Check the box or CPU-Z). Bottom line, if you don't want to overclock or mess around with settings like that, just buy DDR2-800 RAM. |

Pros: -Trusted brand-Plenty of room for overclock-Decent price Comment:
Got this ram to move my os to 64-bit, works straight out of the box. I replace this with 2GB DDR2-800 and all I needed to do was change the timings in bios for my overclock, prime stable. |

Comment:
Seems to be working just fine, although no real noticeable difference from DDR2-800 RAM. Looks pretty in my case. |

Cons: none
Pros: Works fine right out of the box and recognized at jedec 1.8v standard. Nice looking heatsinks! Works at advertised speeds. Great price on sale! Comment:
I use this ram at 1:1 ratio, so 450FSB = DDR2 900 right now.No issues at all. I ran it at DDR2-1000 speeds also, but I prefer 1:1 so 900 is enough. I set the voltage to 2.1V and everything works fine. Apparently the timings can be tightened, but I haven't tried yet. |

Cons: none, does what it says on the tin
Pros: Looks coolCheapGood potential Comment:
This is pretty good ram if your planning on running an htpc. If you run it at 800mhz it stays extremely cool, I have mine up to 900mhz with processor overclocking, since the motherboard does not support ddr 1000, just 800 or 1066. This ram would not work in my board at 1066. But most motherboards cant take 2gb 1066 sticks properly anyway.Great headroom for overclocking from 800mhz. If you want to try and up it to 1066, I suggest having a very good board, processor and power supply, and with that money you could buy some decent Corsair or OCZ Platinum memory. |

Pros: Price, Quality Comment:
Bought this pair but unfortunately, one stick was DOA. So, I was never able to use both sticks at the same time. I did use 2GB for a few days and noticed that it was stable. I have to send both sticks back to NCIX for a replacement at my expense. Hope the pair they send works this time. |

Cons: -Had to downclock while use 4 sticks
Pros: -Good price for ddr1000-Great for high fsb-Solid Comment:
Im writing this review for my second set of these sticks. I just got them since they're so cheap, even though 4gb was enough before. I couldn't get the 4 sticks to run stable u drr1000 and rated timings so I had to downclock it to ddr800 5-5-5-15. Haven't tried tightening them yet or bumping up the volts on chipset though. I also have my fsb u 400 for my e6420 to run at 3.2ghz These sticks have been known to oc up 1100Mhz aswell so pick up these sticks if you love to OC!!! |

This memory is well worth the money you pay. 1000MHZ allows plenty of overclocking for your cpu even if it has a low multiplier. The metallic blue heat spreaders look great too! |

Pros: Price, speed, color:) Comment:
I bought these RAMs for a friend to build a machine but end it up using for myself. So far so good. Now I am using it with asus p5q and intel quad core q9450, works fine. |
2.1v 5-5-5-15 1066mhz with no problems on ausu p5k-e wifi/apat 1000mhz audio studdered and framerate in games suffered, I'm not sure what this is but i think it has to do with my motherboard. the crucial ram I had before this did the same thing enless I overclocked it.
