Definitely a good choice for the $$
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: It does what it claims to do. It runs at 5-5-5-18 timings at 1.9V, which is nice. All too many glorified DDR2-667 sticks are sold as DDR2-800 with a voltage bump to 2.0V or 2.0V.
I am running 8GB of this (2GB x 4) on a Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3R, with 5-5-5-15 timings, at 960MHz, at 2.0V. My E8400 is at 3.6GHz (9 x 400) and the memory divider at 2.4....

Look at all the negative reviews at newegg on this ram and choose wisely
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...

Corsair makes great memory
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: more than 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: The Corsair memory goes on sale quite a bit, and sometimes the deals are so good you want to reach for your wallet. If you're someone who sticks to known memory brands like Crucial, yes, you can be safe with this memory. I've been using it for years in about four different computers, and so far no issues. But, just the same, I am not a gamer.

Good Memory
Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Very fast memory, I plan on upgrading my motherboard to 8 Gigs in the future.
Voltage and Timings are on the sticks so there are no mix ups. Also you should plan to upgrade above 2 gigs if you are on a 64-bit system. Otherwise stick with 2 gigs.
Cons: The voltage on the stick reads 1.8V. However, I have it set to 1.9V and it work...

FloridaChuck
Tech Level: high
Ownership: less than 1 day
Pros: FloridaChuck...........you only see 3.25GB because of your operating system, not because the RAM is defective!
Cons: People who don't understand computer hardware and operating systems giving poor reviews of products is the only con I see here.
Other Thoughts: Unless you have a 64-bit OS, you won't see all 4GB, you'll see 4GB minus the RAM allocated f...

Great performance
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great memory and great performance. I upgraded from 2 gig version. Running this on dual channel. One the down side, those of us still using XPSP2 will only see 3.5 Gigs do to the OS. You have to get a 64 version in order to see the full 4 and above
Cons: The price could be better. They had a $40 mail in rebate promotion that started the d...

Beware what revision you get for OC
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...

Giving me bad memories
I will probably be stuck with 2 Corsair RAM after these two bad RAM are replaced and returned to me, but if I had a choice I would not get them again, even though they do look cool.
I wouldn't mind if one, or even both RAMs were DOA, but the situation is worse. The RAM comes with two metal panels on each side for grip (and possibly cooling). Not only was one RAM bad (memtest spotted that one) but the other RAM broke when pulled out of the motherboard. One of the two metal panels just...

Do NOT Expect the "Rebate"
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: They work, not D.O.A.
Cons: The so-called "rebate". Should have purchased Mushkin.
Other Thoughts: Corsair is not honouring their rebates! I bought 2 pair of these memory, one month apart(one in February one in March). I pre-regestered both times, and I finally received an email stating the product ...

DON'T GET THIS BECAUSE OF THE REBATE..
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: It works nice.
Cons: I bought this memory 6 months ago and I did not get the rebate and you will not get it too.
THE MODEL NUMBER OF THE MEMORY IS TWIN2X4096-6400C5
WHEN YOU GO TO THE REBATE LINK YOU WILL NOT FIND TWIN2X4096-6400C5
IT'S NOT THERE.
I just realized that the model numbers don't match beca...
