Built a system with Phenom X4 9750 2.4GHz Chip (145260), Gigabyte GA-MA770-DS3 Mobo (140820),4Gb Corsair 1066 RAM (148816), Samsung Spinpoint 1TB Drive (143288), Nvidia Quadro FX1700, and an Optiarc DVD (144217), all in a lovely Antec Sonata III case (128045). RAM recognized as 1066 by BIOS, and I know XP won't use all of it, but at this price, who's really counting? Chip with stock cooler running around 39degrees, and thats with no front fan & the big rear fan stepped down to minimum speed. Yes, the northbridge heatsink is hot to touch, but it hasn't melted yet!

I've built something like 10 machines over the last same number of years, and this was by far the most straight-forward.

Oh yes, the case is big & beautiful, but very quiet, as promised.

System is very, very, quick. (I don't do gaming, but large Autocad and Sketchup models - the graphics card & fast RAM is the dogs for these.)

Good Luck!

8GB

It's 1066 ram with decent timing. Has heatsinks already installed so that's nice. Works fantastic with AMD Phenom II X4 940 then again 8 gb of this stuff should work great with anything that can handle 1066. It was cheap, really cheap. For this type of ram I was able to get 8 gb for a great price which I think is crazy - Corsair is the best RAM you can buy

Great memory runs fast, installed booted and recognized in vista x64 no problems.



Recommend this memory if you don't wanna move on to DDR3 just yet.

For the anonymous guy who said it crashes at 1066, make sure you set the DDR voltage to 2.1v or this will happen!



This is good RAM and I have it running at 1066 (5-5-5-15).



I am going to try overclocking but going to find out it's max voltage first ;)

This Memory is great and for a great price



Mine was crashing at first but this was due to my GIGABYTE Board. Alot of gigabyte boards have issues with 1066 memory but most have BIOS updates to cure this. I updated to version 9 bios and this thing runs fast and smooth all day long.



Vista 64 and VMware running xp at the same time no problems
