Pros: Just like the instructions say, it defaults to 1333 so your computer doesn't get ticked off at it. I set it to 1600 in the BIOS and away she went! Super fast! Nice heat sinks. I don't know why people are mad about the color. It's awesomely unique! It gives a new pop inside my Antec Nine Hundred case full of boring blue LED fans!
Cons: The only thing I would say I didn't like about this RAM is that the heat sinks felts cheap. Like, they moved when I went to install them kind of cheap. They aren't a solid heat sink setup like most other RAM out there, they are kind of 2 pieces that come together but don't interlock. So, be careful, this doesn't affect the cooling performance, just caught me off guard. Not going to dock an egg for this b/c they work and I didn't break them off installing :)
Overall Review: I got these in a combo with my i7-2700k. They work perfectly fine. I have had no hiccups with them yet. I've used GeIL for about 6 years now and have never had a bad stick (easily over 75 PC builds).
