    Product Experience:
    3 Years
Strengths: Fast, overclocks well, high quality construction
Weaknesses: A bit more expensive than standard DIMMs
Summary: I've been running 1GB of HyperX PC3500 in my 875P system for three years. Don't be fooled, the RAM is listed as CL2.5 RAM, but I've been able to run at CL2 with very aggressive timings (2-5-2-2) with no problem. Additionally, with a slight bump in voltage (2.7v) and backing off on the timing (2-7-3-3) I was able to get the things to run easily at 343MHz (their rated speed).

My latest purchase is two more 512MB sticks for a total system memory of 2GB. No problems. No problem with dual channel mode even though these are not an officially matched set.

24 hours+ on Memtest86 yielded no memory errors whatsoever.
