Review on 💾 Corsair 8GB DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Module CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10 by Michael Radhakrishnan

This desktop memory meets the highest demands. It is used with the Core i7 4770 processor and the Z87 motherboard. For added security and protection I've added a Kingston fan which is sold for HyperX PC Memory KHX-FAN but fits and works great with these chips. To update. I'm a little late to post this, but I felt better late than never. I started with 8GB of RAM, went up to 16GB after a couple of weeks, and eventually added another 16GB after a couple of months. I use my system to edit and process videos. A total of 32 GB of RAM showed me a noticeable improvement. Some claim that any amount of RAM over 16GB is wasted or excessive. I have a different opinion on the performance. WARNING: I originally installed Windows 7 Home Premium when I created this system (Windows 7 is my preferred operating system). It wasn't until I scanned the system (when it was increased to 32GB) that I noticed it only showed 16GB. After investigating the issue, I found that I need to upgrade my operating system to Windows 7 Professional to be able to read and use the 32GB. You have to love Microsoft. However, the extra $100 for a Windows update was well worth it. My first big project, a 37 minute video, was a complete success. I'm no expert, but I credit using 32GB of this RAM for the ease, speed, and efficiency of making thousands of edits.
