Good memory UPDATE: One flash drive died

Easy install and nice looking heat synchronizers. I installed them on an ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 motherboard. To reach 1600 MHz I simply had to switch the AI Tweaker profile to XMP. The default profile (Profile 1) allows 1600MHz, but the second profile increases the voltage slightly. after installation and configuration. Corsair's RMA process is very slow. It's also a bit harder than most. They usually pay for one-way shipping, and while Corsair does, they also don't offer any carrier other thanโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Timing: 9-9-9-24
Cons
  • Crumpled

Good triple channel RAM.

So far so good, I brought my old Intel DX58SO board back to life in tri-channel mode. I know Corsair makes good RAM, I've only come across one bad module from them as far as I can remember and it was really old not to mention what it's been through using it when I got it got. I don't expect any memory issues any time soon, if any, this Intel board will likely fail first, but then I don't keep recalculating my machine and throwing my parts around. Ground to either be statically zapped. Lol, itโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Vengeance heatsink for stylish design and performance
Cons
  • Not bad

It works fine for me but I've had a hard time choosing the right part due to all the marketing hype

They fit me. It would be nice if Corsair would post a selection guide and/or more detailed product descriptions on their website to help you choose which product family (Platinum, Vengeance, Vengeance LP, Vengeance Pro, or Mainstream) is best for that application. Marketing buzzwords like "fast", "high performance" and "extreme performance" aren't very helpful and that's why I may have bought more expensive memory than I really need. Yes, I understand something about overclocking, but wouldn'tโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Speed: 1600MHz
Cons
  • Approximately
