I currently have an Intel Core i7 rig with 3x2Gb of Patriot Viper 1600MHz memory and Windows 7 64-bit. The exact model of memory is no longer available for a perfect match and this Corsair XMS3 was the closest match with the same 9-9-9-24 timings at 1.65v and up to 1600MHz rated. I don't use the XMP so I will not rate this feature.
I placed an order on a Monday afternoon, it was dispatched on Tuesday morning and arrived on Thursday morning direct from Amazon with super saver delivery. That is impressive by any standards! The package was small enough to fit through my letterbox and arrived in perfect condition.
I opened my case and installed the RAM into my Gigabyte X58A-UD3R motherboard DIMM slots in 5 minutes and so I now have two sets of triple channel memory or 6x2Gb = 12Gb. The BIOS and Windows 7 64-bit (note that 32-bit can only use 4Gb of memory) recognised the extra memory right away and the system booted up first time with no obvious issues so far. For the hardcore gamers out there, this did not appear to impact my overclock but has increased my temperatures by up to 5% with the memory controller on the CPU working harder to address all the channels.
Overall, I am pretty pleased with this memory, the performance is more than enough for current games and the price is good (other sites are cheaper but you pay more for delivery). Thanks Amazon.

These modules are solid and reliable and give me all the speed I need at 'stock' speeds in an Intel I7 930 home build (64 bit Windows 7). After testing, I bought a second set of these modules, bring the system memory up to 12Gb. Not into overclocking, so cannot comment on the capabilities of these modules. Excellent value for money.
I bought these to upgrade from the existing 6GB XMS3 Ram I have and everything went as smoothly as expected. I simply clicked the ram modules into place and the PC booted first time running 12GB at 1600MHz. When I first installed the first 6GB a few years ago I had to go into the BIOS and set the ram frequency at 1600MHz manually. The price of these was really low, I originally paid £115 for 6GB so I saved £80 with these. Great ram and easy to overclock, had them running comfortably at 1800MHz but I need a new PSU for anything more.

This RAM does exactly what it needs to do, and 6GB is plenty for all but the most strenuous of tasks.
