The ram upgrade added much needed speed to my computer. It's definitely worth upgrading and very easy to install (Ram only fits one way on the motherboard so you can't screw up the installation). My computer was back up and running in no more than 5 minutes.

Recently up-fitted a restored Dell Optiplex 3020 with a few cost effective performance upgrades and these RAM sticks offer a great clock speed and capacity for the price. DDR3 is becoming increasingly difficult to find and it a tired office pre-built finds its way into your lap, this little boost in RAM helps the system altogether run more smoothly.

Upgraded my RAM with this product, it snapped right in and my gaming desktop is turbocharged now. No one including Amazon had a lower price on this exact memory.

By upgrading my RAM to 16 GB total (8 GB from this PNY product added to my existing 8 GB), my computer works super-fast. My computer now works so fast when I click the mouse once, it often acts as if I clicked the mouse twice.

Well what can I say. Its not the rams fault my computer can only handle the 3rd gen, but it made an older computer move a few years younger and will allow me to get a couple more years out of my desktop. So this ram served its purpose. Not sure if these ram sticks are tuff, but I had to push super hard to get them to go in. That could be because of the motherboard, but i was afraid the ram sticks would snap.

if you need more memory. this is an excellent choice for the price and range of systems it will work with. (please always consult the memory compatability documents of your motherboard manufacturer before upgrading your ram).

PNY memory modules have never failed me since 2004. I alternate among PNY, Crucial, Kingston and Corsair. This unit operates at advertised speeds and doesn’t crash or give memory errors.

Needed more RAM for some of the latest games, so used 2 sticks of 8GB RAM to work alongside the 4 sticks of 2GB I already had... voila, 24GB (max for motherboard) and the games run smoothly now.

I’m glad bestbuy carried these in store. Installed it into my new PC build and everything booted up fine. You’ll have to configure your settings in bios to get it at 1600Mhz

Purchased this memory as a Christmas gift for my wife to speed up her slow PC (ok...yea, I know....that's a lame gift). She spends an average of 4 hrs a day on her PC on the web (some for work) and was always complaining about how slow the web sites took to load. Her PC only had 4GB to start with. Adding 8 more for a total of 12GB made a drastic improvement. No more complaints, so she is happy now with this gift!

Some applications were showing my RAM as being highly utilized so i replaced the 2x4GB with these 2x8GB for a total of 16GB. Yes, you need to buy 2 in order to have a pair.
Plug-n-Play install. System recognized them and all is well. Things seem quicker, but I didnt do any speed tests.
