Pros: Memory fits nice, looks pretty. Newegg did a good job.

Cons: Bought because was matching numbers to what I had bought a few years ago. Same part # but not matching configuration, old modules were DS, new ones are SS and the bios won't even recognize the new memory. Too bad gskill is turning cheap. I've used their memory for years and not had compatibility issues using same part # modules for upgrades.

Overall Review: Guess its back to crucial.

Pros: Inexpensive - Fast - Reliable
What more do you need?

Cons: None

Pros: Works great with an identical pair of memory sticks that I bought from NewEgg last year, replacing a pair of Kingston 2x1GB sticks.

Cons: The new heat sinks are a shade darker than the old heat sinks.

Overall Review: BIOS on AMD motherboard defaulted to 1066 speed. Had to change settings to get 1333 speed. Since this is my FreeNAS server, I'm not overclocking them to 1600 speed.

Pros: Nice Color

Cons: Both modules defective. Motherboard recognizes both pieces in BIOS but could not successfully install windows. My ASRock H77 BIOS does not have a memory test, so it was only a guess that the RAMs were bad. A replacement piece validated this, but one of that pair (also GSkill) was defective as well.

Overall Review: I've used GSkill in the past with no problems.

Pros: See other thoughts below. My 2010 purchase resulted in two sticks that have worked flawlessly.

Cons: See other thoughts below. My 2014 purchase resulted in two DOA sticks.

Overall Review: I purchased this exact pair of dual-channel memory in 2010 and it has worked flawlessly. Recently, in 2014, I wanted to expand my mid-range gaming rig from 4 GB to 8 GB of RAM, so I figured the most cost-effective way to do that would be to simply buy two more sticks of the same model.

I did that. I bought two more sticks, and they arrived DOA. Both sticks.

I have been building PCs for 11 years, and I have been fortunate enough to have never received anything DOA. I've had things fail after 1-3+ years, but never DOA.

G Skill wanted to be my first, apparently. I have no idea what its "success" rate is with memory that makes it out of its factory, but I will tell you this: no customer should ever receive anything DOA. Aside from the fact that it may violate federal and most state consumer warranty laws, and the contracts between you, the seller and the manufacturer, it is simply a poor, poor business practice. I wanted my RAM on a specific date, and for a specific price. Instead, I will now receive my replacement RAM well after the time in which I wanted it (my vacation), for at least $7.29 more than the amount that I expected to pay, and for an added 3+ hours of my time spent testing the RAM, testing the RAM again, filling out an RMA form, going to the post office, and waiting in line at the post office. All because the manufacturer neglected to ensure that all the RAM that gets out of its factory to its distributors and sellers functions properly, or at a minimum, is not DOA.

Grade: 5 stars for the 2010 RAM; 0 stars for the 2014 RAM. Averaged, and rounded down because both sticks were DOA = 2 stars.

Note: Newegg has always been a superb seller and I will remain loyal to Newegg, but I will never buy from G Skill again because one DOA is too many. I suggest you do the same.

Pros: It works

Cons: none

Pros: fast, nice blue color, easy to install..I bought 4 of these and no DOA at all been going for about 6 months now with no problems.

Cons: only con is that 2 of them had black PCB and the other 2 have green PCB

Pros: easy install, reasonable installation instructions. I will look to buy G.skill again for my next purchase.

Cons: A bit more explanation in the instructions about the CL8-8-8-21 settings and how to correctly set them manually in the BIOS would have been very helpful. I was not trying to over clock the system, but the auto settings did not match the data on the box, and I was not confident to know what to safely set manually in the BIOS

Overall Review: I am very happy with this product. this was my first self-built desktop machine, so I did LOTS of internet reviews, research, and m/b compatibility comparisons. I was willing to pay more for the quality that I needed. this was for home business, home office work. So, I did not need rip-snorting speed; I wanted qualify (and some speed)
Now, 4 years later, I am still happy with my selection. This RAM has been solidly delivering every day, no hiccups, no failures. I bought four sticks, identically marked, and they work fine! m/b GA-MA785GMT-UD2H.
