CORSAIR XMS2 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Desktop Memory Model TWIN2X4096-8500C5C G

Pros: Great ram, cheap cool heatsync running 533 dual channel

Cons: NONE!

Overall Review: great ram, runs great, don't listen to the first post running supa fast with amd phenom ii 940 @ 3.6 ghz m3a78-cm 4gb of this ram 4670 1gb runs crysis on high?

Pros: Great memory at a great price from a great supplier. This memory worked with no problems at 1066 installed in GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3R LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard. Worked the first time with absolutely no issues. Have not tried oc'ing yet.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Not directly listed in the manufacturers approved list, but took a chance and it worked like a charm.

Pros: Runs great at 1066 settings (I set the bios up prior to installing since 1066 memory is so finiky across the board and not limited to a single manufacturer) Been stress testing this stuff for the last couple days and it's pulling in good numbers.

Cons: The only con I can possibly see at this point is the heat spreader. Just wish it had raised fins to expose more surface area to the airflow present within the case. But that's a trend that's been around for quite a while. They don't run hot btw and are just a little over ambient so you can say that the spreaders do their job.

Overall Review: Whenever you're in the market for 1066 or other high performance parts do a little research. Check your motherboard to see if it can offer up what's needed to run the part. Actually go into the bios and see how far the system will let you set it then exit without saving. It's sad really that some ppl are having difficulty setting up and using these modules. If they run fine at DDR2 800 levels with auto detect then they'll more than likely run at 1066 if you've got the right processor and your motherboard supports the settings requirements.

Pros: Price, Corsair, speed, detected correctly first try

Cons: none. I've never had a bad stick of RAM from corsair (knock on wood) they make a good product for a good price.

Pros: Pros... I guess the only thing on my mind right now is that it worked. Not that I expected the memory to be bad, as Corsair and OCZ are the only companies I buy memory from because of their great customer service, but that I hadn't even paid attention to the 1066 part even though it was written everywhere. Back when 1066 first came out, I avoided it because it said it was for quadcore and didn't want to buy it and it not work with my dual-core (since I feel no pressing need to upgrade to quad). I should have trusted Corsair. It booted up just fine with my dual-core and is happily running without a problem.

Cons: None that I can think of.

Overall Review: Great company and great memory.

Pros: Motherboard: GA-UD3P-EP45. CPU: E8400 OC'd to 4.05 GHz. I'm not sure why there are people having problems with these modules when overclocking. As you can see above, I have my CPU OC'd fairly well and these modules run at 1080 (OC'd a tiny bit) with voltage set manually to the listed spec of 2.1. Everything is completely stable. Prime95 for 24 hours and Memtest for 24 hours. No errors of any kind.

Cons: None - Work as advertised.

Pros: *Great looking product *Works as great as it looks *Lifetime warranty

Cons: * Not really a con but:***Will not work with AM2 processors (wouldnt work with my Athlon 6400+X2 black edition @1066 even with timings) called the mobo manufacturer they said AM2+ only. This makes sense because most of the AM2 CPUs were based off of the K8 series if i remember right, which at that time most only ran 800MHZ ram. (i know because I own 3 and none will run the ram at 1066 even on different motherboards from differernt manufactuers.

Overall Review: Some need to do more research before RMAing a product or spouting off about a so called "bad" or "defective product" I admit there are some defective products out there even from top manufacturers, but it comes with the territory of building computers. But please do some research and basic trouble shooting before you decide to post and sway someones opinion on a product.

Pros: good, runs as advertised.

Cons: meh

Overall Review: if you have slower ram it runs the same speed as that..and on cpu z the rate it shows you multiply by 2 to get the DDR speed...it works...don't believe these shmoes who put there tech level super max and write a review before they even understand what they are talking about.
