Very good.,
First let me state that the only other review as I write this believes that Amazon should be clairvoyant and know what type of computer he/she has! Do your homework!
These DIMMs are running great in my home built gaming machine. In an afterthought I would have bought 2200’s instead of 1600. Right now I’m seeing a WindoZ experience of 7.8 with these DIMMs.
It’s also especially nice having only two DIMMs for 16gig. It leaves room for large CPU heatsinks.

|Make sure to burn them in !,
I got two sticks for my Asus p9x79. At first install, perfect. All bench tests show 1600, etc. Then after two weeks, I notice that they are showing in BIOS as 1300 ??? My PCMARK went down accordingly. Then one day, after another almost 2 weeks, I saw Windows reporting 12 GB !!??? WTF ? BIOS also !!!
Flashed BIOS, reset cmos, etc – still 12 GB. Started swapping mem boards and slots, found that one of the pair was showing as 4GB / 1300 no matter what slot ( the other stayed at 8GB / 1600 as it should, in all slots tested ) both by itself and as part of the pair !
Amazon is great as always, shipped the replacement out overnight, no charge. So I didn’t have to go through Corsair’s RMA wait times, and costs.
Make sure to burn these in WELL ( linpak, P-95, etc ) in your first month ! I give them 4 stars here on the assumption that this was a fluke, they have a good rep.

|Great Performance for the Price,
I picked two sets of these up to upgrade my home PC to 32GB of RAM. At first they wouldn’t run as my ASUS P8Z68 Deluxe/GEN3 needed a BIOS upgrade, but as soon as I upgraded to the latest version of the BIOS for my system (3304), everything on this RAM worked great – so chalk that up to an archaic BIOS. Once that was done, I was hitting the 1600 speeds I should see normally. Performance has been great, hitting the top level on the Windows scores. Very happy with it, the chips aren’t too huge (even though those fins on the heatsinks look like they are,) people with small cases might want to beware, they are rather tall.
