    Duration of ownership:11 Months

    Strengths: Good RAM at decent price. Comes with two sticks of RAM in the kit, good for those that want to use dual channel.

    Weaknesses: None so far.

    Overall Evaluation: Never even heard of this company before getting this kit. However, to surprise, the set of RAMs works better than Kingston's ValueRAMs previously used in the same system. Kingston's ValueRAMs would give error when copying files from external USB hard drive to internal hard drive, resulting in having to use different RAMs at lower speed. But after changing to PQI's set of RAMs, the problem disappeared and it works very well so far. The memories in the kit does not have the fastest timing, so it might not be very appealing to overclockers or those that want faster timing. Though, the memories are good enough for general usage, as well as gamings and such.

    Strengths: Price. Dual channel. Compatible with HP DC5000 CMT machines

    Weaknesses: None so far

    Overall Evaluation: My HP DC5000 MT is very picky when it comes to memory. But this one works just fine. It works with the existing OEM memory that came with the PC. I had problems with other brands not compatible with the existing memory.

    Strengths: Compatible with Asus P4P800 SE; Reasonably Priced

    Weaknesses: Relatively unknown brand name

    Overall Evaluation: I was looking for a memory upgrade for my PC which I bought and configured in early 2004. Using my original memory specifications, I singled out this DIMM set, which met the requirements of DIMM slots required (2 of 4) as well as satisfying PC3200 dual channel capability. By matching these characterstics, I was ensured of getting the highest performance of my added memory. I upgraded from 1 GB MB of DDR memory to 2 GB. This product is available from reputable dealers including Fry's Electronics, Newegg, and Outpost.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Great price since I got in on the $30 rebate. Words well in my overclocked PC.

    Weaknesses: None that I've seen yet.

    Overall Evaluation: Very pleased, popped it in and ready to go, no problems. Wasn't sure of the brand but it's great. My PC is slightly overclocked but there is absolutely no problem. Price was great with my rebate. Now it's much easier to work with large applications; much less waiting for swapping. I'm happy.

    Strengths: Works as you expect

    Weaknesses: 3-4-4-8 timing programmed in SPD

    Overall Evaluation: These modules work as you'd expect. They are generic chips with PQI part numbers printed on them. Works fines in dual channel mode on my A8AE-LE motherboard at 400 MHz with 3-4-4-8 timings.

    Strengths: Reliable and compatible with all chipsets I tried

    Weaknesses: None

    Overall Evaluation: I tried using this memory in most of my machines and it's compatible with everything. Every one of them ran this memeory in dual mode. My only regret is not buying bigger capacity chips, like 1GB per module.
