One of many that does what it says on the tin

I had a Corsair PSU - fans but I've never tried their memory cards before and I'm glad I bought them have . because they work well. My gigabyte motherboard is almost 6 years old but still works fine. These boards are really designed to last a long time with proper care. And these sticks will help bring him back. I've used G Skill Sticks, they're pretty cool too, and don't get me wrong, two of the best companies I'd happily buy things from are them. Revain has some pretty amazing deals and is…

Pros
  • Density: 16GB (2x8GB module)
Cons
  • Update available

Great storage for the price.

I just doubled the amount of memory on my system, well below the cost of the 8GB they replaced - and I bought it three years ago. So far so good. I can open programs until my WIN7 taskbar fills up with things like Photoshop, Word, a browser or two, media player, email, Skype, etc. And the memory usage is just 6 GB. The same applies to a resource-intensive game. worth your money. Don't believe any review that says these modules can't be tuned to 1600MHz. The default frequency is 1333 but can…

Pros
  • Speed: 1600MHz. Compatibility - Intel and AMD platforms
Cons
  • Slightly torn

It fried my motherboard but it's ok

I have this PC from 2012 and it only has 8GB RAM and I only use Chrome. I'm at 78% usage so I said let me get 16GB to have 24GB. I installed it then boot loop and I smelled burning plastic so my old computer is gone and I don't mind as the PCI-E slot on top died and the motherboard was discontinued. Maybe it's my fault I put it with the rug and wear socks. I'm returning it and my PC is Build 2012 RIP and almost can't use Chrome. I'm getting a new PC soon that doesn't have RTX capabilities, but…

Pros
  • Limited lifespan
Cons
  • Not bad but...

I love Corsair products and they are one of the few that I trust.

Installed on a new MSI Performance Gaming motherboard, no problems. Plug and Play, as is often the case with RAM. The CPU-Z flash drives have been verified to run at the advertised 2666MHz and the rest is history. near the RAM slots. The RAM is easy to install, but I had to remove the heatsink fan from the CPU cooler on this side. Overall I like Corsair products and this RAM doesn't disappoint. I also bought another 16GB kit for my girlfriend's computer and it worked with no problems either.

Pros
  • Output: 240 pins
Cons
  • approx.

Highly rated memory upgrade at a good price. This 2x8GB memory upgrade from Corsair is definitely worth the price. Super ez to install, unlike my nvme m2 ssd which required a bios update and boot sequence play. Two memory cards can be installed in less than 1 minute if you have access to the motherboard. The memory upgrade and SSD drive to boot will wake up any computer. It was worth it!

Pros
  • Voltage: 1.5V
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
