Review on πŸ’Ύ Corsair CMX8GX3M1A1333C9 XMS3 8GB DDR3 1333 MHz Desktop Memory: High Performance and Reliable Storage Solution by Trevor Rodke

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good, cheap, fast. on internals

You know, I once saw a vein diagram that said "Good, cheap or fast". You can pick any two, you can have a cheap item that is good (but slow), a good fast item is quite expensive, and a cheap, fast item is prone to problems. This particular item appears to have survived all three (so far). I bought two flash drives ($39 each) and overclocked them (a little). So far they have passed all the tests that I have honored to give them. I use a PSP x5 and sometimes work with huge RAW files or images that have been scaled to extraordinary sizes. That memory handled it pretty well. Here's my setup: Sabertooth 990fx r222gb ddr3fx8350 cpu4tb hdd I've been using Corsair storage for a while and have been perfectly happy with it almost all of the time.

Pros
  • sparkles
Cons
  • there are problems
