Manufacturer Response:

. Dear Customer We are sorry to hear you had such issues. This memory kit is above standard, so please make sure to configure settings in BIOS/EFI. Without the proper configuration, the memory may seem defective and cause errors. If you motherboard supports enhanced performance profiles, make sure XMP/DOCP/EOCP is enabled. Doing so will allow the motherboard to detect the basic RAM settings and automatically input them for you. Depending on CPU used, further tweaks may be necessary to stabilize the CPU memory controller. Should you need assistance with this, please feel free to contact us directly. The G.Skill support team will make sure the RAM is fast and stable in your computer. Thank you GSKILL SUPPORT Quality and customer service are our top priorities.

Pros: I was maxing out my 4GB of RAM and decided to buy all new RAM instead of adding more sticks of the same type. I decided on the G.SKILL because of the good reviews and the specs. Well, I'm happy to say that this RAM lives up to my expectations, and I would easily recommend it to anyone looking at buying memory. And the heatsinks look cool too.

Cons: None, really. I guess the heatsinks might get in the way if you have a large CPU cooler.

Other Thoughts: I did have to set the speed/timings manually in the BIOS, but seems to be a pretty common thing. Also, 16GB is probably overkill, but I like knowing I'll never run out of memory.

Pros: Reliable, good quality, fast speed.

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: They are my favorite manufacturer of memory.

Pros: they work great and did not break the bank.

Cons: had to manually set the timings in the bios but other then that no probs.

Pros: Installed this to replace slower 1333 memory and it jumped my index rating to 7.7 so very satisfied with it recognized by bios but like so many not set to proper speed had to manually set the speed, it is a shame that mobo manufactures can't setup to auto adjust the speed

Cons: have to manually set speed in bios on my mobo

Pros: faster than my old DDR2

Cons: none so far

Other Thoughts: My first DDR3. stock is 1333, but boosted up to 1600 immediately after setting up the board GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UD4H.
