Just received this. Seems very good so far. No problem overclocking an LGA1155 with this installed.
One slight issue though to be wary off is that the fins project quite high and can interfere with the placement of the CPU cooling unit if CPU is close to memory slots

Plugged in and it worked without any hitches. Rated at 7.6 out of 7.9 by Windows Experience Index. I went to create an HD movie using this memory and saw that it was taking 7.4 Gb of memory to produce the video, so I have added another 8Gb of this same memory and this was recognised and in use straight away.

Some good quality RAM here. Comes in simple yet effective packaging. No leaflets or anything, just your two new sticks of RAM in two individual anti-static plastic shells which are both in a cardboard sleeve. Installed in a breeze and are designed to work well with new Intel Sandy Bridge setups. These are the same as the Cerulean Blue sticks, the blue ones are just to match new Intel motherboards which have blue heatsinks etc. I have one of those blue motherboards, but actually think these black sticks complement the design just as much. Either colour is a good choice.
These are a bit more on the premium side of RAM. They do have the performance for the price, but if you are just building an office PC, go cheaper as you don't need the speed or the gigglebits. 8 Gigabytes is even a bit of overkill for gaming where 4 will do nicely. I got these for intense video encoding and 3D graphic design mainly.
If it helps, the relevant parts of my computer are...
ASUS P8P67-M PRO Motherboard (Both RAM and Motherboard are DDR3 only and the Motherboard supports the 1600MHz speed, a match made in heaven.)
Intel i7 2600K (a perfect match for this RAM because of the recommended voltage of 1.5V)
These sticks were used in my first PC build, but worked perfectly and at the rated speeds. I have not tried overclocking as it is potentially damaging in the wrong hands i.e me, but I have read this are designed with overclocking in mind and can be cranked up a fair notch.
I bought mine from the seller KOMPUTERBAY LTD and they arrived in good time and good packaging.
I am happy with these and I know you will be too!

Bought this ram to replace 4gb of Dominators (1.8v 1600 9-9-9-24) which kept causing bluescreens due to the voltage.
Put them into my Asus Crosshair Formula IV/AMD 1090T build and they worked straight away and have been stable for over 2 weeks.
I did have to increase them to 1600mhz in the bios as they were running at 1333, but the timings were all fine. WEI score of 7.5, went up to 7.6 with a slight CPU overclock to 3.5Ghz.
Just beware of your CPU cooler, currently have a Hyper 212+ which would be a very tight squeeze to get a second set in. Just waiting for Amazon to have stock of the Corsair H100!
Best part is the warranty and support you get with Corsair, that was the decider over the G.Skill equivalent.

Using them on AMD X6 1100BE @ 1600MHz speed without any problem.
You must change the RAM speed because they run at 1333MHz.

I've bought Corsair memory tons of times, and this set is as good (if not better) as any of theirs. Had my eye on the Vengeance for my new PC for awhile now, 8GB of ram cannot be beaten. Very good price, as easy as ever to install, fast speed and they came 3 days early. Cannot complain.

I upgraded my 4GB RAM to this 8GB RAM to future proof my PC a little.
I wasn't nervous about installing this RAM as it's not hard, it's like LEGO. Just make sure you buy the right DDR and speed and you will be fine.
I removed my old ram from the PC, switched it with the two sticks of this new RAM, closed the case and powered on and checked to see if they had installed and with success I had installed 8GB of RAM and 1600MHz which gave me a noticeable change.
Would recommend! Although get 16GB if you want to future proof your PC!

Well built modules, questionable heatsink
These modules perform just like described and I am pleased with the performance/price ratio.
I am not sure whether the heatsink is effective though. Read more
