Pros: it gets the job done

Cons: nothing that is not inherent in this class of memory

Other Thoughts: a good standard memory module. nothing too extremely special, but also not a game of chance with it working or not (provided that it is compatible with your system)

Pros: As always, good product; Overclockable and stable

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: I paired this mother board with a AMD AMD Phenom II X2 550 Black Edition and Crucial 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333. I ran Raid 0 with two 250 Gb WD hard drives. I have to say I am disappointed in the overall performance. I was able to clock the CPU to 3.8 GHz changing the multiplier to 19x. I also overclocked the memory to 1600. All this and it just barley gave better performance than my 4-year old AMD 4800+ on an MSI board. I expected leaps and bounds in performance...but did not see it. I ran Passmark tests to find out weak points...Video really slows this down. I am using the on board controller in dual monitor operation. Once overclocked, it still can't boot fast, but is pretty quick otherwise.

Pros: By the way new egg is the best when it comes to shipping. They arrived super fast and popped them with no issues.

Cons: None they worked.

Other Thoughts: This is my first time with ddr3 and i don't see much of a difference as far as gaming goes. But I must say as far as multitasking i do see a gain in the time it take windows to open and close. I'm currently using on-board video and i just ordered nv2201gb so I'll see then. Will update when it arrives.
