Just thinking about getting some of this to go with my new motherboard when i get it:

Wandering if anyone here uses it and would you say it is reliable/decent ?

Also, thinking of using it with this motherboard, when it comes back in stock:

Am i right in saying that it will work fine (thinking of gettings two 2x1gb packs for 4gb of ram)?

Cheers

I've used 4x1gb sticks of that for a while now until I got pc8500. It was very good quality and could take a fair overclock quite easily with no increase in voltage.
 
It's OK stuff; a mate has some and it runs stably but doesn't clock very well.

They might have changed the IC since he got his kit though.
 
I have it. Runs great, never had a problem. Although on stock voltage I can't get it above 920Mhz. Still very happy with it on stock speeds. The low latency makes a huge difference IMO.
 
Sounds good, but now i am tossing up either getting the geil 4gb (2x2gb) sticks (the same orange one) which is not available from ocuk and the corsair 4gb (2x2gb) sticks from ocuk.
 
i've run the 4x1GB orange ones in my sig at up to 960MHz at 5-5-5-15 but i'd say u'd be better off going for a 2x2gb set to allow slots for upgrade later and also cos it puts less stress on the northbridge (allowing higher OC) if using only 2 slots.
 
I had 2 gigs of this stuff for a while. I never did find its overclocking ceiling, and I had it going well over 900MHz at stock voltages. Fantastic stuff.

(of course, my ddr3 is better :D)
 
Used to have 2 gig of that. Ran fine at 480MHz for months. Added another 2 gig of the same stuff and all 4 sticks ran fine at 480 MHz:D all at 2.1v

Make sure you raise the VDIMM. rated is 1.9v - 2.3v *


Check yours is the same rated VDIMM before you do this
