    I bought two to update my son's computer after a month, one failed and did not work, but it gives me an error when trying to use it. I am only using one, the correct price for its durability, I hope it will continue to work for a long time

    If you just have a basic desktop this will work for you. But if you are a gamer, like me, then you will need one with heat sink.

    I had four sticks of RAM, each 1 GB and replaced it with one stick of 8 GB. My computer kept crashing so I took it back and was advised by a Geek that my motherboard was failing. I had him remove my 8 GB RAM stick, and I replaced the 4 sticks original to the PC. PC has been working ever since.

    i"m reviewing this at 3 stars. 8 gb is sufficient memory if you add it with another 8gb to total up to 16gb. however this is a DDR4 stick so it didn't fit in my pc which was my fault for not knowing the difference. before you buy a ram stick download the program "speecy" on your PC it'll tell you what memory stick you already have so yo know what can fit in your motherboard. Also i recommend talking to the geek squad when purchasing computer parts they are really helpful and know what they're talking about at the very least to a helpful degree to get you understanding things more.

    I purchased two of these to upgrade from 4gb to 16gb. Installation was easy and it was recognized by my pc. However, there was a bigger delay in my computers response time. Not pc savvy so I retuned them as per the details of the memory they were running at the right hz and properly.

    This Memory was purchase along with Dell Inspiron Desktop - to act as expansion. Dell Inspiron had 8Gb, this would double to 16Gb. Despite confirming the match of memory to the Dell online and with the BBY Store Associate - this memory was not recognized by the Dell. Had to return.

    As soon as I installed the memory, my computer blue screened. I tested the ram with memtest86 and it failed several tests. Returned and purchased Crucial ram. Tested fine with no issues. Computer has been fine ever since. Avoid! Would rate 0 stars if I could.

    Bought for a Dell Insipron pc and had to return as the memory is NOT compatible with Dell pc's. Dell Blue shirts insisted it would work. Ended up buying the correct memory from Amazon
