    I wouldn't buy this, it is cheap. Buy isn't even posting the specifications. Corsair products are good, but get some real Corsair memory, not some cheap value line.

    Don't fall for the "gaming" memory crap. It's all just marketing. Other corsair ram, such as 4gb kit from newegg would be just as good, if not better.

    How is this crap 'gaming special'? It is JEDEC standard 800MHz, the tRAS isn't even 15! mrblur, if you can return these sticks, buy all means, do so. Even if it means a 15% restocking fee.
