Pros: Good memory at a good price.

Cons: No improved speed over DDR 1333 via bench marks.

Other Thoughts: If you already have DDR 1333 that is working and stable don’t upgrade to DDR 1600.

Pros: Good performance for the price

Cons: Initially, BIOS reported the speed as 1300 and timings as 9-9-9-24. Have to manually set voltage and timings.

Other Thoughts: For my new computer, I got an AMD Athlon II CPU and an ASUS motherboard. I wanted 6 GB of DDR3 RAM, and the Asus QVL (quality vendors list) had this Gskill RAM listed. So, I ordered it from Newegg.

When I got the product, I was worried by the phrase "For Intel Core i7 CPUs" printed on the package. I sent an email to Gskill technical support, and I got a reply the same day, assuring me that it should work with AMD CPUs, although AMD does not support triple channel.

Indeed, it worked fine with my Asus mb and AMD cpu. Installing the RAM was easy. When I first booted the motherboard and got into the bios, the RAM speed and timings were all wrong. I had to change the Ram voltage to 1.6, and manually set the timings. Other than that, everything works fine, so far.

Since I bought this memory kit only a week ago, so I cannot comment on long term reliability.

Pros: Does exactly what it says and the only ram I could find that was supported by ASUS for up to 12GB on their boards. I bought two sets of these and it worked perfect right out of the box at 1600mhz 2xTriple channel. I have not had any problems with the ram and I've had it for about 8 months.

Cons: No cons, I wish they sold 4GB sticks of this stuff.

Pros: Fast, stable, and stays very cool.

Cons: not really a con, but they are fairly tall. Be sure to check clearances before ordering that massive CPU cooler.

Other Thoughts: A lot of people here are saying that it will not run at the correct speed out of the box. The reason for that is because the "correct" speed is actually the maximum speed, and no processor can run RAM at 1600MHz with stock clocks. In order to get to that speed, you must adjust a couple of parameters within your BIOS. It's a very simple adjustment, and thus, not a con.

Pros: Great memory and love the reviews I saw about their support.

Cons: None so far

Pros: -Price
-Speed
-Looks

Cons: -Well it did not run at 1600mhz at first. I had to tweak it in the Bios. So not really a big deal.

Other Thoughts: Great ram. I would definitely recommend it.

Pros: Good reliable fast RAM. Every stick worked right out of the box, no problem. Not much else to say though... the RAM seems to work great and like it should. Haven't had any problems.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: Sticks were under clocked and timings were off when I first installed them. However, I'm still getting to know how the relation between CPU and RAM speed work so I adjusted both clocks to get the RAM to it's optimal voltage, clock speed and timings. I've heard that with the lower Core i7's (930 in my case) you need to do some adjusting and that you can't achieve 1600MHz RAM right out of the box. That being said, the lower timings/clocks were probably just me.

Pros: Fast RAM, perfect for my computer, haven't had any problems and it has been over a year and a half now since I got them

Cons: None?

Other Thoughts: Love em.

Pros: I am only giving this 4 eggs because like some of the others I was reading about I had one dead stick on arrival. Where this was bought in a package newegg wanted the whole package returned which would have left me without a computer since this is a new build. But alas G.Skill has a lifetime warranty and you can send in sticks individually no matter how they are bought. I chose that route and they promptly sent me a new stick that worked perfectly. Price has went down 10 bux since I bought... 174 for 6 g-bees isn't that bad. Wish it was free shipping though.

Cons: One DOA stick...
