Pros: Excellent pair of sticks. Running 2.1V at 4-4-3-15 @ 800mhz on a M2N-SLi delux, and they're still cold after about 1.5 hours of gaming. The potential for these beauties is amazing, and that's still under manufacturer allowances ^_^

Cons: My board maxes out at 800mhz, so I can't go higher. Oh, and they're BIG!! No way these are going to fit side by side with my board.

BUYER'S WARNING: If you're running a M2N-SLi Delux board, you can only fit 2 sticks.

Other Thoughts: Really wish my board could fix a second pair. If I could I would definitely have bought 8 gigs. If you want 4 sticks though, I strongly recommend buying 2 first as these sticks are very wide. Some reviewers were able to bend a couple pieces out of the way, but in my case that wasn't an option. If you can make em fit side-by-side, then come back for the second pair.

Couldn't Get 4-4-3-15 Out Of Them

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

Pros: WOW!!!
These bit(hes are advertised at 4-4-3-15 @ 2.1v 800mhz
Well I couldn't get a 3 out of them, best I got was 4-4-4-12 but at only 1.95v 800mhz. So that was good. Same as the 2GB Corsair XMS2 800mhz I replaced with this 4GB set. Same 4-4-4-12 timings BTW.
So because I couldn't get a 3 (all reviewers could?) out of them I went with mhz, I kept the 4-4-4 but upped it to 15 @ 2.1v and got 1066mhz out of them and they can go more but my mother board maxes out at 1066. Now I'm going to do some gaming, COD4, Combat Arms, etc. and put them to the test. Well I tested them for 3 hours with no problems at those settings.

Cons: One of the reasons I went with these sticks was the 3 timing they got with them. Any other sticks with 3 timings are above $200.

Oh well. :~(

Manufacturer Response:Hello, while these kits are rated at the specs you mention, your system must be up to the task. In our experience the M2N and the 570 chipset has a few quirks. I personally own the motherboard that you have and it seems you are doing very well with your overclocking and settings. We are always happy to assist our customers with settings on our support forums at the link below.
Thank you
