Best for the price, no reason to look for anything else.
Corsair has always made some of the best memory modules on the market, and after getting two of these kits for a total of 16GB, I can see that they still are some of the best. Works great on any platform, but bare in mind that the SPD is set to 1333MHz from the factory, so you will need to adjust it to the rated and tested 1600MHz in BIOS. Even so, I actually left mine at 1333MHz for a while because I forgot about this, and all was well. If you find this for about the 30 price point, there is no reason to look for anything else. Mind you, the normal profile version, if those fit your system, will go a bit higher in OC because they can dissipate a slightly larger amount of heat. Mind you, these are rated for 1.5v which is very low for a kit running at these speeds and latencies, so there is plenty of room to spare and I can guarantee that they will run at 1866MHz with a proper motherboard. In any case, for the average user, this is everything you will need and more, at least for the following 2-3 years.

Great Quality & Value
Although some users will have issues saying their ram has stopped working or developed a fault, I could not find any fault with these, good value, functioning correctly and as long as you fit them correctly taking care how they are handled and secured they should work every time. Please do a little research on your PC or Laptop though - Remember when building or upgrading a system, that your motherboard can only handle RAM of a certain capacity or speed, don't just "stick a bigger one in and hope for the best".

Bargain with style
Great memory at a great price. I didn't realise this memory has a 'low profile' design (as designated by the LP in the name) before purchasing, but it looks fantastic in my case. I was aiming for a rugged, minimalist build and this plays the part perfectly. I've matched this up with the following for a great look and speedy performance: Asus SABERTOOTH Z77 Motherboard Intel 3rd Generation Core i5-3570K CPU Silverstone SST-RV03B-W USB3.0 PC Case Akasa AK-CC7117EP01 K32 High Performance Intel Cooler Sapphire 11196-09-40G HD7950 3GB Vapox-X Graphics Card Crucial 256GB M4 SATA 6Gb/s 2.5 inch Internal Solid State Drive I'm very happy with this memory and with an easy overclock to 1866, I'm getting 7.9 on the Windows Experience Index and my machine looks great.

Good Quality RAM Plays Well With Existing Sticks
Bought this set of 2 x 4gb sticks of 1600 speed ram to max out of rapidly aging system to it's full capacity of 16gb.I have been using it or at least the system it is in for 10 hours daily, 7 days a week for the last two months now and not had a single slow down or crash and it is playing well with different speed and manufacturer sticks of ram.To be honest you really can't go wrong with Corsair and have been using them for well over a decade probably closer to two decades.The sticks are well made and robust and the heatsinks on them look beefy enough without being obtrusive and interfering with the slot beside it.Installation took under a minute as does the installation of any RAM for those that know what they are doing. For anyone else I can't imagine this taking anymore than 5 minutes and the sticks can only go in one way around so just go easy and once you have the right way around just apply a little pressure until the stick seats properly in it's slot and make sure the little locking tabs on each side of the stick are in place and that's it done. There is countless of tutorials online and on Youtube.This will probably be the last upgrade I make to this old system before biting the bullet and building a new machine but as it stands still a very quick machine helped along by this new 8GB addition of RAM.Took a star of because I think it was slightly pricer than what it really should have been. £10 cheaper would have been closer to a fairer price.

Trusted Manufacturer and Fits snugly Next to a Artic Cooler
Worked straight out of the box and no tweaking in the bios was required. Great size and quality performance for the price; needed some low profile ram to squeeze next to my Artic Cooler and it fit. Some of the newer games like Just Cause 3 are eating 8GB of RAM for breakfast and when the time comes I'll definitely purchase this set again to increase my RAM to 16GB.Here is my spec:GPU: Sapphire R9 280 3GBCPU: Intel i5 4690K @ stock speedMOBO: GA-Z97-D3HRAM: Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 8GBHDD: 1TB WD GreenSSD: 120GB SandiskOS: Windows 7

Very good RAM for such a good price
I paid around £30 for these 2 sticks of RAM and I'm glad I chose them. They fit perfectly under my Corsair A70 cooler and are appropriate for all my games and general day to day things.Also VERY speedy delivery. Came around a day and a half after purchasing.EDIT:Around 3 days after I had these my brother got a bit jealous and ordered these for his computer. We've had them for about 8 months now and they are still going strong. Great deal!

Simple and effective upgrade for my PC
My PC originally came with 2 x 2GB VData cards and it had got to the point of being almost unusable, with memory constantly max-ing out and the machine effectively freezing! I don't know much about tech stuff so, after much searching online for what to buy as a replacement/upgrade, I settled on these Corsair 2 x 4GB cards.I could have opted for more since I have 4 slots on PC, but there were issues around using all 4 slots (e.g. fan getting in way), and in terms of single card size, I believe 4GB was the max for my motherboard.Anyway, I put the new cards straight into the slots used by the original cards, switched on and hey presto, 1 upgraded and fully functioning PC. Wish I'd done this years ago!

Ram de bonne qualité !
Kit de barrettes acheté suite à la défaillance de l'une de mes barrettes. Mon pc ayant quelques années, j'ai cherché le même modèle que celui que j'avais choisi lors de l'assemblage...et surprise, j'ai trouvé exactement la bonne référence sur Amazon !On ne présente plus la marque Corsair, qui produit des Ram de très bonne qualité !Je recommande ! Même si je suppose que ce produit ne doit plus beaucoup se vendre car les normes ont vite évoluées !
