Corsair CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10 Vengeance 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) DDR3 1600 Mhz C10 XMP Performance Memory Kit - Black

I bought two sticks of this RAM, totalling 16GB's. I use it on an ASRock Z77 Extreme4 motherboard with an Intel i7 3770K CPU. I work as a 3D artist and animator, so I need as much RAM as possible, video editing software of any kind runs better when you have as much as possible. Adobe After Effects uses 80%+ of the RAM, this is the same no matter how much you have, these sticks are low cost, high quality and high capacity, so you can't go wrong with them. I'd go for higher capacity memory over higher speed memory for most applications, its just more cost effective and the difference in those overclocked speeds are negligable, 1600mhz on a modern system is perfectly good.Also, you have to do some fiddling in Windows if you have RAM over 1600mhz for a Z77 system. So if you're not sure about that, just use this RAM and you will get the best performance without too much messing about.The price has dropped from £45 to nearly £30 since I bought it, so I will probably upgrade at some point in the future :)

bought this guy as I was short of cash when building my new pc so wanted to leave one of the tow ram slots free so I could got another later don't think I will be doing that now as 8 seem plenty for most for my games and lots of other tasks I have had it 3 weeks or so and yet to see memory usage go past 35% so no need for any more for me anyway

This memory stick is great - although I paid a high price for buying it at the time I did and should have got it earlier... other than the price, the performance is great - faster than the 1300Mhz sticks I have in my other computers. I have not tried to overclock as yet as my motherboard does not allow this but the performance of the memory has not been an issue so far.

I'm using this in a new build with an A88xm-Plus motherboard, AMD A8-7600 and one stick of this RAM. You're supposed to use dual channel RAM with this CPU but even though I'm only using one, it's still very fast. You can overclock it (although I probably won't be), it has a decent speed, I can multi-task without any problems and it has a fairly high quality plastic on it. I would recommend it to anyone as it's great for the price. I'll probably pick up another stick soon so that I have more GB to work with but it's a brilliant piece of kit.

I'm using a single stick of this ram and will probably get another one with a phenom x6, with a nvida 550Ti on a Gigabyte motherboard and for the value its amazing runs anything at high speeds and combined with a PCI-E SSD/HDD hybrid it doesn't bottleneck the speed. Would recommend it to any system builder.

Had 1 of these sticks in my computer for around 4/5 years, still works like new. Recently decided to upgrade to 16gb, so got another 8gb. Everything is faster now that i'm using 2 sticks in in dual channel mode.

Module works perfectly fine and arrived just as in description. Looks neat and performs great. Was great option for me as I wanted bigger size module but didn't have money to buy a pack of two.

I ordered 4 of these for use in my lab server - it mostly runs virtual machines and so having as much memory as possible is a real bonus! I spotted these modules for a great price and thought that I would give them a try. I have been using them for about 4 months now without any problems and the extra RAM is really coming in handy!Highly recommended and great value :)
