Pros: Excellent product, easy install, and plenty of overclocking wiggle room.

Cons: Price, but as the other reviewers say, you get what you pay for with this excellent CAS 6 memory.

Overall Review: Currently running an Asus P6X58D-E w/ Core i7-930 @ 211x19//4GHz with these memory sticks set to 6-8-6-20@1691MHz at 1.64v. I'm pretty sure these can be pushed even further for the oc fanatics. What's even more impressive is that they outperformed my G-Skill Trident DDR3-2000s.

Pros: I've been a System's Builder for many (too many) years and I'm still a bit "old School". Having used all sorts of Memory for Intel i7 systems it has become glaringly obvious to me that "Latency" still wins out over higher speed-----and does NOT require Life-shortening Voltage increases of your RAM to do so. Mushkin does it again with this RAM--it is simply super fast out of the box without any tinkering whatsoever.

Cons: My Wife, who is reading this over my shoulder. Ouch!

Overall Review: For those who complain about the heat spreaders falling off: Mushkin designed the heat spreaders that way. On a CPU for proper heat transfer you want an extremely THIN layer of thermal compound. A big wad of compound, no matter how good it is will not transfer heat properly. So, it's your job to do your homework. When installing this RAM, don't be a big clutz! Install as directed using even force on the top ends of the heat spreaders and you should have no problems. The "thin" heat transfer material that Mushkin uses is VERY effective and is applied as it should be for maximum heat transfer. If a heat spreader does come undone, put it back on with gentle pressure and install THAT stick first, so that you can grip it better while installing it. I have a SILENT 120mm Noctua fan rigged to blow down on this RAM and the rest (CPU, GPU, NB and SB) are water-cooled, so my system is literally "SILENT". Again, Latency over Speed ANY TIME!!!

Pros: Fast, Stable, and Quality. Price?

Cons: its not egg fault on this but mushkin.REBATE? its been 3 months so far. And still waiting....(- 1 egg)

Overall Review: I usually only write reviews after rebates(like i said its taking too long). Bought them in july and still in processing. Had to choose either Corsair and mushkin? i wish i went with corsair instead.i wouldve gotten my rebate by now.

Pros: Was able to lower timings to 5-7-5-18 @ 1556Mhz and haven't tried for even tighter, so might still have room. Some of the coolest looking ram with it's heatspreader design.

Cons: haven't found one yet

Pros: LATENCY LATENCY LATENCY

Cons: none

Overall Review: No need for crazy 2100 etc, this will do the trick

Pros: Heatsinks disperse the heat very well, I OC my ram and barely need a fan on them. The latency is really low, and the ram installed perfectly on the Asus x58 Premium mobo

Cons: The heatsink on 1 stick slide off during install.. not good.. but pushing it back on seems to keep it in place.

Overall Review: I hope the heatsink doesn't fall off in my case later on... lol

Pros: Memory performs at least as good as specifications state. If not better. Runs decently cool for what it is. Good looking heatsink. Excellent tech support. (Thank goodness!)

Cons: Heatsink easily comes loose after very few insertions. The Ridgeback heatsink and their TIM are not robust enough to be your primary test RAM if you are going to move it from board to board Once the TIM adhesive for the heatsinks is loosened you may have a hard time seating the modules correctly. Since the TIM loosens easily you should plan on getting your modules serviced often if you perform repeated insertions.

Overall Review: Mushkin Rebate take a LONG time. 2010-06-06: Purchase date 2010-06-16: Rebate mailing date 2010-11-08 : Rebate receipt date Time to Rebate: About 5 months. Definitely longer than a card billing cycle. Patriot rebate times are better by at least a month or two. Unfortunately, even as long as the Mushkin rebate interval is, they are still better than most I have experienced.

Pros: Speed, Quality, Price, and Appearance.

Cons: Nothing to note.

Overall Review: I went with the same kit. I really like Mushkin products so I gave them another shot. All three modules (6GB) posted at boot. Changed the memory to "XMP" within the BIOS and all appears to be well!
