Most Critical Review

Good Memory, Good Price, Bad Service

Patriot Viper 3 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin PC RAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model PV316G160C9K
Patriot Viper 3 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin PC RAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model PV316G160C9K

Pros: The one stick that worked worked very well, had no issues. Fast, great color and a good price (I paid $61.99 after rebate)

Cons: One stick was failing from the start. The video driver kept crashing and recovering. I loaded up memtest, and sure enough one stick was consistently having errors. I started an RMA through Patriot (I guess that was my mistake, should have gone through Newegg). I mailed in the RAM with everything that was asked and have yet to hear anything from them; they received the RAM on 12/26/12. After multiple emails I still haven't gotten a response on what is going on, or even that the RAM was even received. I had to send in the entire kit so I haven't been able to work on my recently built computer for the past couple weeks. Very frustrating.

Overall Review: Five egg product, one egg support from Patriot
