    Anyone have experience with this ? I'm thinking of ordering this for my m14x. Does it actually run at 1866 and would there be any difference in term of speed ? :D

    Yeah, ive got a set of these) tell you what, the system becomes a little responsive, especially while using an Intel HD GPU) Here's my latest bench http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/807/cachememb.png/

    It also depends on what you do with your system! And yes, it's supported on any SB machine cause it has XMP profile which sets the speeds automaticly and not OC'ing it, you'll totally be fine)

    If you game on integrated graphics then you will notice a difference but if you are going from the same amount but to a "faster" memory, you won't notice any benefit.
