So, I really like these and im just wondering what you guys think about the company/memory modules, good/bad?

Also will OcUK be stocking them anytime soon? would be nice for the choice since OCZ has dropped out...

Thanks

It's good stuff. They do some low voltage 1.35v stuff that overclock like demons too.

I've only heard good thing about Mushkin, a couple of friends have used their ram.

I'm using some for the first time recently, it's good stuff. Low voltage, low (enough) profile, and acceptable pricing. Their online support and openess through their forums was very encouraging too.

I had been interested in trying them out before but I just don't build/upgrade machines often enough these days, so finally got some for my sandybridge build a couple months ago.

It's not something I'd be too crazy about though, I mean, I wouldn't be prepared to take the pepsi challenge against other RAM or even claim I have the bestest, but still a sufficiently happy/satisfied customer and I'd have no problem plunking down for some more in a future build if things stay the same.

Previously I tended to gravitate towards Corsair Dominators (pricey for what you get though IMO) or XMS3's.

Just got some Copperhead which looks lovely, comes in a cute little flight case as well! lol

Mushkin have been around for years and used to produce some legendary modules like the ludicrous bh5 they made, i used a set of redlines on my old amd64 rig. Still solid ram but doesn't seem to be as bleeding edge as they used to be.

Yeah, great quality RAM but they don't make the high end stuff like they used to. I think Mushkin only have the one uk based retailer at the moment (which was eluded to above) so unlikely that OcUK will be stocking their stuff but you never know.

mushkin ram seems to be one of those companies that isnt as widespread and is more specialist and makes fantstic quality components - can be a little pricey sometimes

Thanks for your input and feedback guys, really appreciate it!

I have always gone down the Corsair route on both RAM and PSU but im thinking about a new build and these may fit the bill for RAM, but i dunno yet...

Is any Corsair RAM better and the same price as the Blackline/Redline range?
