Pros & Cons
Pros
Gb of ram is more than enough for most applications. I have rarely used over 5 gb of ram, so 16 gb is overkill unless you are building maps or something. Going from eight to sixteen gb of ram made a substantial improvement in operation, from booting u... Read More
I prefer the low profile heat spreaders because this gives me more flexibility with aftermarket cpu coolers. I plan on installing a cooler master hyper 212 evo cpu cooler with 120mm pwm fan soon and suspect i will not have an issue with it hitting the... Read More
This ram is the only ddr3 1600 ram that is on the list for 4gig modules and 16 gigabytes of ram. The 16gb ram pack is what i bought and it works great. Kingston ram always runs smoothly for me.
Cons
Big mistake. Consumers are not the final product testers for any company, and forcing them to be is a huge mistake.
Highlights
Quality
Never had had an amazing memory speed and capacity, super fast and easy to install with the asus z87-a recomended for real pc gamers
After installing the new ram into my motherboard, my computer booted up with no problems and i immediately noticed much faster performance.

The cpu, processor: amd athlon(tm) ii x4 635 processor, amd64 family 16 model 5 stepping 3,processor count: 4, propos, was getting hot.

Packaging/appearance
It came in a sturdy package and it runs my pc just fine.
Competitiveness
Of course i will be buying more kingston ram as needed.
I don't even buy off brand/unknown makers anymore.
Often times, i've had to return other brands, because they did not work with the motherboard i bought, even though they were th... Read More
I just stick to a few name brand now and kingston is on the top of my list.
