<![CDATA[Have you checked your memory lately? Are you running low (check easily at this site)? Odds are, you could use a upgrade! That’s where the Patriot signature 8 Gig sticks come in.   Currently games are starting use a lot of memory and you don’t want to fall behind on the newest games! Patriot is a company located in Fremont California that has been around since 1985. Patriot Memory makes a range of memory module and flash memory products, offering a perfect blend of quality and value. Patriot products include Extreme Performance, Signature Lines, and Flash Memory solutions. (Patriot Memory)

The specs of this model are:

  • žDDR3 1333 SDRAM
  • ž8Gb Capacity
  • žCAS Latency: 9
  • ž1.5 v
  • žNon-ECC
  • ž7.8US Refresh Interval (8192 CYCLES/64MS)
CAS latency is especially great for this memory.  The lower the CAS latency the better! Think of the latency as a delay. For this model “9” is a really great number for the latency. It is low enough so that you will have no trouble running all those fun games.

If you are thinking about getting that finishing touch for your gaming PC  go ahead and pick some of this memory up! You will not regret your decision. Even if you aren’t the gaming type you can still use this memory to get your computer as fast as it can be. It can be found over on Newegg as you can see it has a respectable 4/5 eggs. Also if you are building an entire machine go ahead and check out our other review for the ASUS Rampage IV Black Edition motherboard. These two products will pair up nicely!

<![CDATA[CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9B
Corsair is an American company that is located in Fremont, California. It was founded in January of 1994 by Andrew Paul, Don Lieberman, and John Beekley. They started developing the level 2 cache modules called cache on a stick. In 2002 they began shipping their products all over the world.
Corsair Vengeance

  • model- CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9B
  • type- 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM
  • speed- DDR3 1600
  • capacity- 8gb
  • voltage- 1.5

This memory would be best used for gaming or if you just want to have a lot of memory. I would recommend this memory because it is high performance for such a low price. If you want to buy two of them it will cost you $92 on Newegg. If you just get one then it will probably be around $42. If you purchase this on Newegg you will receive a lifetime warranty on parts.
