Being a primarily PC gamer, I need to make sure my PC keeps up-to date on a lot of areas. So, when my PC had reached 4 year's old with the same 8GB's of RAM as when I got it, I felt the time was to finally replace them. After a little looking around online, I came to the conclusion that this was more than likely my best option, and I was not wrong, I will tell you that for nothing.
First off, the price was the cheapest I could find of a popular and trustworthy brand; so I knew going into this purchase that I would be getting a high-quality product from a quality brand. When they eventually showed up to my door, I didn't hesitate in opening up my PC to install these new, red bad-boys. Now, it must be said, I don't think I've ever really looked at RAM before and gone, "Well, isn't that an attractive piece of kit." Well, after opening the packaging that is exactly how I felt and I knew that this was starting to go well already. But, alas, it's not the visuals of the hardware that matters, it's the performance and whether it actually works or not and I can certainly say that it does.
Moving onto installation, there was little-to-nothing to it; after all, it is RAM. RAM isn't exactly known to be hard to install, so that took almost no time at all. Once it was successfully installed, I powered on my PC, and quickly got to checking it had installed correctly and without issue and you know what? It did! The RAM had no issues whatsoever during the entire process and is working perfectly with no issues cropping up in the time that I've had.
Overall, if you're looking for a RAM upgrade for your PC, then this is more than likely going to be one of your best options. I may not be able to make too much use of the RAM at this time, but I know in the future that having the 16GB's of RAM that I get from this will most assuredly make my computer's job easier. So, all I really have to say is that if you're looking for a new RAM upgrade, you probably won't need to be looking around for anything else; obviously, providing that you're looking for 16GB's that is.
