4 out of 5 eggsinteresting thing

Pros: one stick worked

Cons: the other stick did not

Other Thoughts: since I only needed to replace one bad former OCZ stick, i just kept the one non-DOA Corsair stick and didn't bother with RMAing them both. surprisingly seems to be pretty stable even with mismatched sticks in dual-channel--one OCZ and one Corsair.

5 out of 5 eggs

Pros: Good ram. Good clearance with after market CPU heatsinks.

Cons: Runs a little on the hot side. If your going to over clock , might want to get ram with finned heat sinks.
