I have an older motherboard, so if you can use DDR4, go with that. However, this RAM is great for boards which only support DDR3. Installed easily, and works great in one or 2 pairs, which can get you to 32g ram cheaply.

These dimms didn't work on our computer cause they use an extra volt of power that my dell computer does not supply. Even though it was my fault I'm going average rating. Product could be made for voltage supplied

Good for their value, and works perfectly! No bad things to add here, as they are fast, have enough memory for any reasonable task (I'm looking at you, Mafia 3), and easy installation! Would recommend for any person looking to get more than their money's worth while not spending too much!

I ALWAYS trust PNY. The upgrade to my desktop PC was really easy. Turn off, unplug, open the back & insert the DIMM into the open RAM slot. Plug the PC back in and reboot. That's a quick performance boost for the handling of my photos.

I was building a new computer to run Win 10 and wanted 8 gigs of RAM. This was cheaper than two 4 gig sticks and I still have an open slot. This was completely compatible with the new motherboard and the new computer works great.

I had an older HP computer that only had 4GB of memory. When I upgraded to Microsoft 10, it slowed my computer down a lot. I thought I was going to have to replace my desktop but the Geek Squad suggested replacing my memory with the new 8 GB memory cards because you need at least 8 GB of memory to run Microsoft 10 properly. Now it's like a new computer!

As a graphic designer, I believe there's no such thing as too much memory. When I purchased my new HP, I immediately made the decision to max out the memory, regardless of cost. What a pleasant surprise to have the Geek Squad memory recommend this top of the line product at such a reasonable price. To top it off -- the Geek Squad installed the memory for me, at no additional charge. Best products, best prices, best service -- it's a real theme at Best Buy.

I do a lot of video and photo editing along with work and gaming all on my PC. I was seeing some slowdowns and freezes and decided some additional ram would give me the boost I needed, and it did. I was pleased to find it available at my local Best Buy as I'm an immediate gratification type. Size and speed were a match for my system requirements. Installation is very straightforward, even for a novice.

8gb ram for Dell Inspiron PC

This was a great purchase. The ram card snapped right in, requiring just removal of 2 screws, and upon turning on my Dell Inspiron 3647 PC computer instantly recognized the new ram, giving me 12gb total now. Seriously increasing computer speed as the factory 4gb was maxed out causing freezes. I would buy again in a heartbeat! So simple to upgrade.
