  1. I really value the fact that they are dropping voltages on memory, its long overdue and I applaud them for doing it

  2. I really dig the heatspreader design, im not a fan of the giant kingston ones, its too restrictive now, no need for it.

    lets hope they all get performance memory down to these voltages, will help reduce heatspreaders design also.

  3. I really think this is a great kit and better than the kingston stuff you reviewed last week. lower voltage, better OC, smaller heatsinks. Id like to see a review of a 3 way 4GB kit (12GB) for X58.

  4. Garry, only thing is with three sticks in the mix, the OC can be worse. would be interesting to read though, even though I dont have X58

  5. Good kit, the prices lately are brilliant, 80 quid for 8GB of DDR3. Its bound to go up soon with Japan though.
