G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-14900CL9D-8GBSR

Pros: It works, no failures thusfar,

Overall Review: no big deal just overclocked a bit and got my advertised speed.

Good Stuff

Patriot G series ‘Sector 5’ Edition 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model PGV38G1600ELK
Patriot G series ‘Sector 5’ Edition 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model PGV38G1600ELK

Pros: Fast stable ram

Cons: they got me to buy this with the promise of a mail in rebate I have yet to see any rebate action, been nearly 2 months

Overall Review: I wish instead of wasting our time and resources with stupid mail in rebates, they'd just put the items on sale. Ultimately they'd make more money than having to have us copy print mail some one to process etc... oh wait.. they make more money cuz you don't ever get ur friggin rebate.

great card/horrible customer service

Pros: huge upgrade from the 5830, easy install, fantastic performance.

Cons: price dropped 30 bucks after buying it, trying to collect the freebies from the xfx site was a joke, took 5 days to get a response to download the free dirt 3 game.
