Most Favorable Review
Mushkin Enhanced Blackline 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model 996657
Mushkin Enhanced Blackline 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model 996657

Pros: Fast! Has heat sinks. Rock solid when done right. 4 gb scores 7.5 in Windows 7.

Cons: One stick was defective causing system lock-ups. 3 emails with mushkin and I had a new one with no hassle, so no eggs off for that.

Overall Review: This runs very stable at 1600 7-7-7-20-27 and 1.95v on my Asus M4A785TD-V. All other settings I've tried have failed horribly with this board.

ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO AM3 AMD 785G HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Am3, ddr3 1800, well built and good looking. Not really much more to ask for in a board that's under $100 shipped.

Cons: Second pci express lane is 4x, but I knew that buying so no real complaint there.

Overall Review: I have this board paired with a Phenom II 955 and 4 gb Mushkin 996657 set to 7-7-7-20-27 @ 1.95v. Like others I had serious issues with this ram and board combo. After much tweaking I have been very stable for about 6 weeks with the aforementioned settings.
