Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 RAM Module - 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) - DDR3 SDRAM (CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9)

Pros: -Can overclock with CPU up to 1700Mhz or so with slightly higher voltage.
-Runs excellent at 1600Mhz at 9-9-9-24Cons: -Needs to manually configure these on some motherboards to get the clock cycle as advertised.
-Can get random bluescreens for some people running windows 7 64-bit. Takes one egg off.-Runs good with i7 2600K, got few bluescreens with bugcheck error from event logging through windows 7 64-bit system. I'm not sure if this was related to RAM but as I do research it's pointing this way. Once it's stable it's stable. If you don't plan to overclock this thing in the first place, you probably won't run into bug check memory errors.

Pros: Works great, no issues with my ASUS crosshair iv formula moboCons: Overclocks are nothing to write home about.

Pros: This memory looks snazzy and gets the job done. Pretty simple.Cons: none

Pros: Holds 8 Gigs of RAM
Look Like Demonic CombsCons: NothingThey hold 8 Gigs, what more could you want from RAM?

Pros: Good Ram just go into the BIOS and turn on XMP and it rund @1600 stableCons: Tall heat spreader, my cooler would not fit with this RAM on the board. I moved the fan to pull through and all is goodFor the money this is the bomb. 16 gigs for under $200

Pros: works at rated speedCons: many mobos can't use a 4 GB stick in a slot.I wasn't paying close attention when I bought this kit and got lucky that I had ONE mobo that could use these and release a 4x2GB kit for the mobo I had bought them for.
That is MY fault- not the product.- no deduction for that.

Gets the job done and lives up to it's name.

Pros: Looks sick, works seamlessly with my system, all around good product.Cons: Only a con for me because of my huge cooler, but the heatsinks are pretty tall on these guys. Not worthy of subtracting an egg.

Pros: -Easy Install, Fired right up
-Looks cool in my case

Pros: Easy install
Nice design heatsinks
MOBO had no problem with it.Cons: No so far

Pros: Solid, fast, and easy to install. Asus Sabertooth P67 recognized them at 1333, but it was easy to bump them to 1600 in the BIOS, using the XMP profile. I've pounded them overnight with the memory-heavy Prime95 tests, and they stay cool.Cons: None.

Pros: Over clocks nicely, neat blue color heat sink matched my gigabyte motherboard perfectly. Pairs good with i7-2600k and gigabyte ga-p67a-udp3-b3.Cons: Its memory... as long as it works, overclocks, and is stable how could there be any cons.

Pros: Easy to OC
HSF Keeps them Cool
Decent Timings
Good Voltage
Looks great with Blue MoboCons: Runs under-clocked by default, need to set XMP mode in BIOSThis paired really well with my Asus P8P67 and I5 2500k CPU.I dropped these guys into my system and noticed they were running at DDR3-1333 speeds. So went into BIOS and set them to run in XMP mode, then they ran at the specified timings at DDR3-1600.

CASE: Corsair Obsidian 650
MOBO: Asus P8P67 Deluxe (REV 3.0)

RAM: 8GB DDR3 1600 Corsair Vengeance
SSD: OCZ Vertex 3 - 120GB
HDD: 1TB WD SATA3 6Gb/s

Pros: Low voltage (1.5) allows for high compatibility with many mobos. Works at the 1600Mhz advertised with XMP enabled or after manual setting if your board doesn't support…

Pros: Amazing-Corsair has catered to the public with affordable compatible ram. Not only is it specifically compatible but it is also on par with high…

Pros: Cool looking. 8gb of high quality ram not much else to say.Cons: None that i can see.Cool looking. 8gb of high quality ram not much else to say. None that i can see. Didn't notice a big performance upgrade from 4gb if any at all but its being recognized and seems to be working at the listed speed. No complaints.

Pros: Right now the ram runs at 8-8-8-8-20 1600 with no problems under win 7 ultimate 64x. This is just the first setting chosen for the ram, might have more room to tighten more.Cons: Posts in bios as 1300 ram cas 9, so for those that aren't comfortable with bios changes be cautious.Right now the ram runs at 8-8-8-8-20 1600 with no problems under win 7 ultimate 64x.

Pros: Worked fine, no memory test failures (32GB worth)Cons: I cannot manually change timings on my motherboard, the maximum it would do (based on the SPD data) was 9/9/9/24 at 1333.This is still better than the DDR3 1333 GSKILL I had, which wouldn't run at those timings at 1.5V.Worked fine, no memory test failures (32GB worth) I cannot manually change timings on my motherboard, the maximum it would do (based on the SPD data) was 9/9/9/24 at 1333.This is still better than the DDR3 1333 GSKILL I had, which wouldn't run at those timings at 1.5V.

Pros: Works as stated and looks pretty cool.Cons: None.Works as stated and looks pretty cool. None. Setup in the BIOS or EUFI first as per instructions. I have had no problems. Does as it describes.

Seriously... if your rig supports this ram, check you MB's QVL list to be sure... after trying other Kits from OCZ that never performed even at the recommended settings…

Fantastic performance. Looking forward to giving them a real workout. Will be purchasing two more to complete motherboard upgrade.

Pros: I bought this RAM to increase my capacity to 8gb, and so far I am loving it.
Runs at 1600mhz like it says it does and is worth the price.

Pros: may be fast, but I returned themCons: The height makes them too difficult to work with unless you are not using air cooling.may be fast, but I returned them The height makes them too difficult to work with unless you are not using air cooling.

Pros: Windows reported memory errors when I first installed this RAM. After checking my BIOS I realized I forgot to set the voltage to 1.5 which resolved the issue and now it works perfectly.Cons: The heat sinks are a little flimsy that just have a sticker on them. I had to be extra careful when I installed them so I didn't break them by accident.Windows reported memory errors when I first installed this RAM.

I had to be extra careful when I installed them so I didn't break them by accident. I bought this to replace the 4GB of Corsair Dominator RAM that was no longer available which was a pain. I decided to go with 16GB (4 sticks) which is overkill just so I could max the RAM on my mother board and not have to deal with that issue again. I bought the 4GB Dominator RAM for $150.00 just one year ago so you can't go wrong with this RAM for the price.

Pros: This stuff overclocks like crazy at 9-10-9-24-41. I would guess its max overclock to be in the 1800+ and there are even review samples which top 2000+ at timing I stated above.Cons: THE STICKER!This stuff overclocks like crazy at 9-10-9-24-41. I would guess its max overclock to be in the 1800+ and there are even review samples which top 2000+ at timing I stated above. THE STICKER! This is good ram.

A really nice new series from Corsair that carries low voltage and good performance; all wrapped up in an attractive price tag.

Corsair finds a perfect compromise price and performance with this overclock-friendly 8GB kit.

Pros: I bought it for about $105 which was a fantastic price for this. It's plenty fast at 1600MHz. Stays cool and OC's well. You can raise frequency and lower timing with ease.Cons: Tall heat spreaders. I have an H50 so it was no problem, but be wary if you have a large heatsink.

Pros: I ordered two sets of this DDR3 memory to bump my system to 16GB. A bit over the top though I was frequently hitting the 80%+ memory usage mark with my prior setup. The memory is speedy and lower voltage (1.5V) than my previous setup (1.65V). I'm pleased so far.Cons: I needed to upgrade my motherboard bios to consistently use all 16GB--once that was done all has been well. Before the bios update the system would sometimes recognize only 8GB.I ordered two sets of this DDR3 memory to bump my system to 16GB.

Pros: Currently running on my new SB setup, 2500K and P8P67 Pro. It booted up with the XMP profile with no problems (9-9-9-24-2T). I manually changed it to 1T, and so far its flawless with no change in volts.Cons: It is a bit tall. It might not fit under all heatsinks, but its not a problem for me at the moment.Currently running on my new SB setup, 2500K and P8P67 Pro.

Pros: corsair makes some great ram. I am using this same kit in my system now on a ASUS M4A87TD-EVO and it didn't complain once even though the DRAM LED lit up red it still booted and i have not had any stability issues either.Cons: could have been slightly cheaper but i used a 20$ promo code when i bought my set so i got it for 109.99 when i purchased.corsair makes some great ram.

Pros: Works like good ram should, no problems during post or set up in bios. The heat sink looks aggressive and feels well built. Nice big area to push on when seating unlike the dominator series.Cons: The mesh look on the front is a sticker. Not a big deal at all but I just hate faux finishes.Works like good ram should, no problems during post or set up in bios. The heat sink looks aggressive and feels well built.
