Mushkin Enhanced Blackline 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model 996599

Pros: Great price for a lot of RAM. Overclocks VERY WELL!!!

Cons: Not really a complaint but a request. I am on my second set after doing the RMA thing. I wish NEW EGG would pay for the shipping costs all the way around. (You buy something brand new it should work, right?)

Overall Review: No complaints really.

Pros: This memory screams at stock speeds. OS/App/game load time is notably reduced. Came bundled with reputable benchmarking software which is nice but I haven't used it yet. Scores a 5.7 (max of 5.9) for the memory subcategory on Vista Ultimate SP1 x64 at stock timings.

Cons: Runs a quite warm .. but apparently good heatspreaders ensure stability.

Overall Review: Great memory, Mushkin will now be near the top of my list for recommendations. Newegg great as usual of course of course.

Pros: Mushkin... Why am I thinking of little furry creatures sporting big glassy eyes. Wait -- that was me. People made fun of the name at market release way back when I didn't have gray hair. Due to the fact that the manufacturers of the Mushkin memory line have put their money where their mouths are the brand is considered among the best of breed. 99.9% of the time you can expect Mushkin RAM to "just work" right "out of the box" and with excellent performance. Your Mushkin RAM will most certainly always work with any board supporting standard bus standard architectures.

Cons: They don't coo when I pet them.

Overall Review: I heard that they can beat up Smurfs. NewEgg got the goods with the price points on these bad boys. I'm getting me another set to get my system dancing with a straight 8Gb's and might reserve me some more for a 16GB set-up.

Pros: Nice OC friendly memory for the cost. Worked in my Abit IP-35 Pro out of the box - though had to set timings in BIOS. Nice (if a little pedestrian) spreaders in black. Fantastic packaging that comes with 3DMark Vantage license (needs Vista) to run. Thanks, Mushkin. You've never let me down.

Cons: None

Overall Review: It's a good product, and Mewegg shipped this quickly like the class acts they are.

Pros: Fast RAM, affordable price

Cons: After months of periodic reboots I couldn't figure out using in windows RAM checks, I finally downloaded and ran mem86+ from DOS only to find that one of the sticks DID in fact have a bad memory address not found by the in windows RAM checker. It would show up 3 - 4 times every 5 passes of MEMtest 86+ but it was causing my problems.

Overall Review: RAM seems to be one of those things that seems like a gamble when you buy it... sometimes its good, sometimes its bad. Mushkin tends to be good more than bad though, so I'll stick with them.

Pros: It pwns Crucial Ballistix. We have had to replace 8 sticks of Crucial Ballistix RAM TWICE within 1 year of making the initial purchase. The first time we replaced it with a new set of Crucial Ballistix RAM sent from the manufacturer. Of course they took MONTHS to send it to us because they were "out" of the proper components. And they didn't even tell us that until after we waited an eternity and then contacted them to find out where the hell our RAM was. Then, to add insult to injury, THAT RAM went bad too. So this time, when it died we decided to go with a completely different manufacturer. So far so good!

Cons: None.

Overall Review: I will never buy Crucial RAM again. No way.

Pros: I have owned this memory for about a year now, and I am happy to say that this memory has lasted me through 3 motherboards and I have had absolutely no problems. Works at speeds of ddr2-1200+ overclocked and stable. I wouldn't buy any other ram.

Cons: lol don't make me laugh, no cons.

Overall Review: Buy it while you still can because this memory is now less than half the price it was when I bought it.

Pros: Perfect in every way. I've bought every other memory over the years, from value select to ridiculous overclocking memory and only recently started buying Mushkin and I'm a total convert. I bought this RAM for my own company computer, and reliability and consistency along with performance is a priority, and this Mushkin has been the best in every regard. What I'm most impressed with is their attention to customer service, and it definitely catches my attention when a company takes time to respond to reviews posted in NewEgg, that's how I know they are making a priority of memory that has the Mushkin name, as opposed to other companies who know that their memory is going to be just stuffed in a box and the end-user won't know who to complain to other than "dell" or "hp".

Cons: none

Overall Review: Mushkin? Haven't heard of them before, I wish I had.
