Flawless
By Michael Hampton
For those of you new to building Core i7 based PCs, be aware that in order to run this RAM at 1600, you will have to set the memory profile to XMP in the BIOS, or on some motherboards, fill in the timings manually. These are printed on each of the 3 sticks so they shouldn't be hard to find. Not doing so will cause the RAM to run below 1600, or on some boards, not be stable.Now that I've owned these for nearly a year I feel I can comment on them. And the comment is: Flawless. I'm even going to buy a second set to upgrade to 12GB.I am using these with a Intel Core i7 920 on an Asus P6T6 WS Revolution motherboard.

By Extol
Don't listen to W. Garrahan's review.This kit, if put in a proper I7 motherboard with tri channel and 3 slots will be fine.XP won't recognize the 6gb ram but will not slow your pc down at all.XP 64 would be better but I'd go windows 7, I won't install vista or Vista64.This kit is rock solid, superfast and easily handles more voltage and oc.

By j-rob-82
The feel of these sticks are nice and heavy and come in a three pack. Even though my X58SO motherboard has to be adjusted to recognize 1600 ram they are still very fast. Keep in mind unless you use 64 bit Vista it doesn't matter how many you use since 32 bit will only recognize about 3 and a half. These are probably the best ram sticks I have ever owned and with the way they are made heat dissipation is very nice. Get yourself a good board and get to overclocking to get the most out of these sticks. Though the price is steep considering three sticks of DDR3 can be found for under a hundred dollars they just aren't as overclock friendly as these are. I would recommend these to people who are trying to get everything out of their system they have invested in. Why would you get all awesome parts in your rig only to drop cheap ram into it (by that I mean the green sticks of ram that come factory with most computers). I would say casual computer people shouldn't invest and these are probably only for those who want to push quality and performance. Most people don't think about the quality of RAM that they have so its not a necessity for them to have the best. Overall nice addition to my self made rig and so far everything is super fast and I am very happy with this RAM.
