Pros: Installed and understood by BIOS and utilized by both XP and Ubuntu. No issues for over a year...not one! No memory errors, no POST errors...IT JUST WORKS!!!
Cons: The price...but what is new. If you want the best you pay the price.
Overall Review: I have an asus mb about to upgrade to windows 7 pro 64-bit. I just ordered another stick of 4GB...can't wait to have my mb at 16GB!
Cons: None.. (I just wish Newegg would keep more in stock - Hard to get - always sold out.... High Demand)

8GB Memory Upgarde GA-G31M-ES2L11/26/2009 6:13:20 AM
Pros: Upgarde that is beyond the manufactors specifications. Gigabyte "GA-G31M-ES2L" say the maximum memory is 4GB. I purchased and installed (2 X 4GB) of Kingston Memory - KVR800D2N6/4G to replace the (2 X 2GB) of Factory installed memory. Every works find. Please see specification listed in Other thoughts>>>
Cons: I now have 2 X 2GB of obsolete memory I need to get rid off... Booooo!!!
