CORSAIR ValueSelect 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 Desktop Memory Model CMV4GX3M2A1333C9

Pros: It works, good price

Cons: It doesn't make me a sandwich.

Overall Review: Good price

Pros: Can Hardly use over 25% of the available RAM Access speeds are Great No need for a Hard Drive assisted Paging File (or SWAP Space for you UNIX Junkies)

Cons: First set I got was DOA, I continually got application crashes and a few BSOD's Ran MEMTEST32+ and found error's at Test 5 (Block Moves) For some reason it was down counting 00200000 Bits. Had to RMA, which was at the last minute of my return deadline but Newegg shipped it back at their expense and gave me next day replacement, (although the return was ground so I had to wait a week to get the system back online.) Replacement is working great, MEMTEST32+ Passed where the old set was failing. Have had no problems with the new set. Even though a got a DOA set, not all can be perfect and I was able to diagnose the problem and get a replacement, so I'm not going to dock any eggs for it.

Pros: Corsair Branded Inexpensive Solid performance

Cons: No heat spreaders

Overall Review: Those heat spreaders are cool looking, but not really needed. I am running 64GB of this in a mini hypervisor server that I built. It works great. The quad channel socket 2011 system has tons of memory bandwidth, and make the system a dream. The cost of this memory made this system possible.

Pros: This stuff rocks for the price. No issues at all, and that is a good thing. I did not want ultra fancy and expensive "enthusiast class" RAM that costs more than it is worth since the Sandy Bridge platform is not overly sensitive to memory bandwidth to begin with. I ran MemTest86+ for over 10 hours and this stuff completed 15 passes without a hiccup. Also Prime95 for 3 hours and again no issues at all.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Intel DZ68DB Crucial M4 128GB as primary Seagate 7200.12 1TB mass storage Core i5 2500K Sapphire Radeon 6950 Toxic Edition unlocked to 6970 Corsair DDR3-1333 PC-10600 8 GB (2x4GB) Auzentech X-Fi Forte 7.1 Corsair TX-650V2

Pros: Price was good if both DIMMS worked (which they didn't)

Cons: 1 of 2 DIMMS was DOA. Return shipping for RMA is $11, which you must prepay. Personally, I think it is pretty unacce3ptable to get a failed DIMM delivered and have to pay return postage.

Overall Review: Looks like another reviewer had similar experience. Maybe Corsair's quality control has gone down the drain.

Pros: Improved greatly, computer works better, no issues

Cons: None

Overall Review: I bought two packs to upgrade my ram from 6GB to 16GB. Just wish my computer supported more than 16GB.

Pros: Low cost and worked great. Corsair offers good RMA/repair service you can trust.

Cons: The memory chips are covered in plastic label that may limit cooling.

Overall Review: Be sure to enable the memory remap feature in motherboard's BIOS or you will only see 3GB. I ran the frequency up over 1450MHz and worked at stock settings. I then tried 1600MHz but did not boot. I imagine if I played with the timings or voltage I could have made it work but stock frequency is fine.

Pros: price, size

Cons: none

Overall Review: I bought 32 GB, recognized by gigabyte mobo without problems. I did not try any overclocking as it is a waste of time, I needed stability for my ESXi.
