The fastest ship in the ocean just got faster. Corsair's XMS3 modules take performance to the next level and beyond. This dual channel kit has been tested together to work at 1600Hz at latencies of 9-9-9-24. Once the modules were tested they were immediately packaged to ensure that the matched sets stayed together.

Corsair's legendary reliability is backed with a lifetime warranty. The dual path DHX aluminum heat spreaders on the modules help to extend their life by keeping them cool. The extended chip coolers are supplemented by a PCB cooler. Both sets of coolers are finned for extra surface area. The chip coolers are ribbed for maximum cooling area. Win the race with Corsair XMS3 memory modules.

First! *And I actually bought it here...

Reviewed By: vermillionx73 on 4/11/2008

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Fast, DDR3, overclocked to 1600Mhz in BIOS easily (timing 9-9-9-24 at 1.8v). Works well with my EVGA 790i.

Cons: Not much of a con, but the packaging said '2x1Gb'. I panicked and thought Newegg sent the wrong item. I double checked the chips and it was fine.

Other Thoughts: This ram was a bit pricey, but not as much as the other chips which are priced at $700 or more. This was the fastest 4Gb set with the best price. If you wanna splurge a little on yourself when going DDR3, and you're gonna use 64 bit Vista, these sticks aren't too shabby.

Good RAM

Reviewed By: soulcalibur7 on 6/4/2008

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

Pros: 9-9-9-24 setting at 1600 and 1.8v works like a charm, no overheating issues. Nice clean design. Good performance.

Cons: I was using Vista 32bit at first and I only had 1.75GB registering. I checked and rechecked everything and it just would not load up the rest of the memory. I upgraded to 64bit Vista and now it works flawlessly, actually displays 4GB of ram now.

Other Thoughts: Says on the package that it will only work with 64bit OS and from my experience, you need 64bit to get all 4GB.

Product good / Newegg messed up

Reviewed By: jasv on 10/13/2009

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Memory worked as expected. Fast and no compatibility with my AMD Phenom II x3 / Asus M4A785st-v EVO motherboard.

Cons: None with the hardware. A big problem with newegg's eroding customer service.

Other Thoughts: I ordered a week in advance to install during a trip on a PC 2 hours away. The memory arrived on time but it came from the RMA center with the package poorly stapled together and mangled up. I paid full price for a new item not a return. Although, after I insisted newegg paid for return shipping they wouldn't send a replacement without receiving the return. I missed my window to install the memory on that trip.

Ok, everyone can be forgiven for one mistake. The following week, I bought a DVD/CD recorder and it also came from the RMA center with pieces appearing to be missing. Again, I paid for a new item. I didn't bother returning it. Sadly a long time customer has been lost.
