Get medieval on your enemies with this DDR2 1066 kit from mushkin. These XP2-8500 modules run at enhanced 5-5-5-15 timings to let your system run as fast as possible. A stock voltage range of 2.0-2.1 lets you fine tune your memory subsystem.

Keeping things cool is the high-efficiency FrostByte heat sink system. It's anodized in flat black for that serious, sophisticated look. Mushkin has experience at listening to the high-end users and giving them what they want, and this is no exception! You really get low-latency performance at a price that won't hurt!

So far not good

Reviewed By: Chuck on 6/25/2008

Tech Level: high - Ownership: less than 1 day

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Seems nice. Good price. Runs fast(if it works)

Cons: 1 of 2 sticks is not stable @1066, no matter what I do. Testing things, one of the sticks works just fine @1066, but when running just the other one, to test, I get blue screens, lockups and crashes.

Other Thoughts: I'm gonna be sending these back and haven't decided to try my luck with another set or look at something else.

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Heatsinks look great, memory runs great at 1066.

Cons: Heatsinks are a little larger then others, but they both fit side by side perfectly.

Other Thoughts: Will be buying another set when I get the chance.

Wont run at 1066

Reviewed By: Road on 11/4/2009

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

Pros: Will allow computer to start and run @ 800mhz

Cons: Wont run as advertised at 1066 mhz. Fails all memory tests, causes a flurry of BSOD's. Will not run in dual channel mode or EPP mode.

Other Thoughts: Save your money, buy any other brand. If you are running a Gigabyte GA-MA790X-UD4Pn like I am, do not attempt to run this at advertised speeds unless you are prepared to clear CMOS after each try to get to POST.
Mushkin is no help at all, sent 3 emails no replies.
