Corsair Memory is specifically designed for rock-solid stability in demanding applications. Data lines are carefully engineered for noise immunity, clock lines are optimized for minimum skew. All modules use JEDEC-compliant six-layer.
Pros: If you're not a hardcore gamer, but still multi-task to a reasonable extent, you would do well to purchase this memory. Quality Corsair RAM at such a price is almost a steal.
Cons: There are much better RAM modules if you're a gamer
Overall Review: Run a set in dual-channel, and you're set.
Pros: fast memory, runs w/o any problems in my system, just plug & play. runs bioshock, quake 4, RTW, and CSS, without streching the rams capabilities. got it back when it was only $35 a stick
Cons: runs a little hotter than I'm used to, even with the heat spreaders
Cons: non really, though if you plan to water cool your ram the extra heat sink could be an issue
Overall Review: Overall I've been using the XMS2 ram by corsair in all my systems for the last year or two, and despite a little shaky start with a bad stick, ever since everything has been smooth sailing. It may not be the fastes ram out there anymore, but it does the job and at 20ish bucks a gig the price is hard to beat.
Cons: didn't work at all. i had not one but 2 bad sticks.
Overall Review: why!!!

Pros: It works! Nice heat spreaders.
Cheap price.
Cons: None
Overall Review: I used this in an upgrade for my kids computer with a ECS K8M890M-M v 1.0a MoBo and a Sempron 3000+ AM2. Put it all together and it worked from the get go, nothing to adjust. I was a little worried about the 675 speed instead of 667, but it does not seem to be an issue.
Not sure about OC and such since I sm not gonna mess with it. This is just for a very basic system
Cons: Lately it seems that Corsair has been going down in the quality of their memory. I just got a bad stick (my first in years) from this company and a lot of people I've talked to lately have also received bad sticks.
Overall Review: It may be just my luck, but you might want to think before you purchase. I'm using an Asus P5N-E SLI 650i motherboard and an E4300 along with 2GB of this same RAM.
Pros: Its been working great - definitely a good buy for the price.
Cons: None - great timing specs
