Really good but expensive.......2007-05-21

Very nice product and very fast but by the time I bought it was really expensive (180 US$) maybe now it's at a good price. I'm satisfied after all.

First was DOA, after RMA second worked fine.......2007-05-19

Cheap. First arrived DOA. RMA . Took three weeks for replacement to arrive. Replacement works fine so far. My first RMA experience with TigerDirect was fairly painless, but paying for shipping twice really kind of sucks.

Beware what revision you get for OC.......2007-05-16

This ram comes in flavors from revision 1 to I believe revision 6 (the latest revision I heard about..). I believe after revision 3 or 4 they started using Promo or other crappy memory chips instead of the really good Micron chips. The cheaper ram chips run OK most of the time but the real draw back is that they have shorter life and most importantly DO NOT overclock well at all. So, unless you know you are getting an early revision of these sticks, don't bother. If you really want a memory from Corsair that just runs at stock speeds, then you are better off with the slightly more expensive CL4 versions anyway since they are so much faster.

Works great.......2007-05-14

The ram was sent quickly and was delivered promptly. Everything was in working order and am happily using now.

Look at all the negative reviews at newegg on this ram and choose wisely.......2007-02-16

I bought this RAM and mine is working fine. I ran 8 and a half hours of memory tests with no errors because I was shocked at all the negative reviews from newegg. I really think I found the culprit of all those negatives though. When mine were shipped to me they came in a box with packing peanuts. Those things had MAJOR static. I am pretty sure a lot of people were getting so much static from those peanuts and then opening the ram that is in a plastic shielding. I made sure I had no static and even sprayed my work area with a solution of water and a few drops of dishwater detergent. YES - I was so worried when I read all those reviews. So maybe I can start off the reviews on here with a positive effect.

This booted up at 5-5-5-18 on a P5B Deluxe which was not hard to change in the BIOS at all. I researched my system and this is what I built and couldn't be more happier. These items go very well together...
Corsair PC6400 RAM, E6600 C2D, EVGA 8800 GTS, P5B Deluxe, and most importantly, I have a 500W power supply in this rig and all seems pretty well, but I would recommend a higher one because of the few BSOD that I have seem when messing around with my system.

One last thing. I have been able to run these at 4-4-4-12, but did get a few errors at 1.8 volts. I recommend the 1.9 volts and more if overclocking these sticks.
