Strengths: Good price from a quality manufacturer.
Weaknesses: Not the best of overclocking.
Summary: The value line of memory modules from Corsair are great buys. Very reliable products at a substantial cost reduction from their higher end lines designed for overclocking. These modules worked flawlessly and the performance is great.

Strengths: Great value for the money, reliable, easy to install DDR2 memory.
Weaknesses: Not the fastest memory on the market, no heat spreaders, latency is 5-5-5-15.
Summary: Installed this in a Gigabyte 8I945P-G motherboard for a system build and it works flawlessly. If you're a hardcore gamer I'd go with something with a lower latency, but for this price you can't go wrong.

Weaknesses: No heat spreaders
Summary: If your looking for a good quality and good priced memory chips, this is the way to go. I've only been using this for about a week now, but it seems to be working great so far. This a a very good buy for its price.

Strengths: Name brand, low costs, 2 gbs in dual channel
Weaknesses: its value ram.. not really for an ocing system
Summary: added this into my dell computer that used ddr2 and it works great. Read the 2gb without a hitch.

It is value ram so no heatsinks for overclocking. Haven't tried memtest..

Strengths: Cheap, fast
Weaknesses: none
Summary: I have this memory installed in my new Core 2 Duo E6400 system. I did hit 720 MHz with this stuff but couldn't get it stable. Probably needs more voltage or looser timings. But for the price I paid, I'd say it delivered as promised and more. For light to moderate overclocking, this stuff is great.

Strengths: Good price from one of the top brands
Weaknesses: No heat spreaders
Summary: I ran into the deal $109 after rebate. Corsair is the brand I have been using for a great long time, never have a problem yet with them from PC133 thru PC2-5300. The only thing is heat spreading with this memory kit. I am not a gamer so not a concern for me.

Strengths: Nice stable memory
Weaknesses: No spread heater
Summary: I got this to run in a vista system and everything worked the first time. My hp A1730N BIOS recognized it and everything is running very stable. These matched modules run as fast as my other pair of 2x512MB Corsair XMS2 modules and all 4 sticks are running dual channel. Too bad I am running the 32bit version of vista because it can't utilize the full 4GB if I have gotten 2 sets of this memory kit. Despite being from their value line and lack of a heat spreader, they are very nice for the money.

Strengths: Cheap. Stable. High quality. Good support.
Weaknesses: Perhaps the lack of heatsinks (but I think I would rather attach copper ones myself with Artic Silver adhesive as detailed below).
Summary: Very stable, and performs as designed. I've been running it since May 2006 on an Intel BOXD945GNTLKR Socket T MB, with an Intel Pentium D 930 Presler 3.0GHz Dual Core processor, and an ATI Radeon X1800XL All-In-Wonder. Everything has been running beautifully. Not a single reset or hard lock to be spoken of. System speed is wonderful. I've done no overclocking, as I don't think a few extra clock cycles are worth the risk vs. the reward

Strengths: Very fast, very stable, cheap price, great for games!
Weaknesses: I wish the modules came with the fancy heat spreaders that the expensive ones come with. But this isn't a really big lose.
Summary: 2006-11-28 16:22:54 I have not had a BSOD because of my memory yet so they are of great quality. Every time I tell someone I have 2GB of corsair memory they are like wow! You might miss the heat spreaders but as long as you have good air flow in your case and don't over clock to much you'll be fine. Not that you need to over clock with this much memory and this kind of performance. I've never had any of the low-latency memory but this will get the job done. Get it! It's corsair at a great price and save some money and get that bad NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX!

System Specs:

p4 630 3.0GHz, ASUS P5N32-SLI deluxe, 2GB corsair, BFG 7800 GT oc, Antec neo he 550, Western Digital Caviar SE16, Zalman CNPS9500 LED, Thermaltake Kandalf case.

Strengths: Very good value for the price. The 667 MHz clock speed is better value than a lot of other products in the price range.
Weaknesses: No heat spreader.
Summary: I have been using this memory in my newly built system for about a week now and the system has been very stable. I multi task a lot and have many applications open at the same time. The performance has been very good and I notice the performance difference when I play games too.
