    This memory set was affordable and popped right into my PC. Gaming lag issues have disappeared with the doubled up memory. Great investment.

    Upgrading my Ryzen 7 2700X box from 16GB to 32GB by adding this kit to my existing 16GB 2666MHz Crucial RAM. Working great at the rated speed. I was hoping I could overclock the RAM, but it's not stable when overclocked. No harm no foul - if I wanted faster RAM I could have paid for it. I am glad the heatspreader is understated. I dislike paying more for RAM simply because the manufacturer put a ridiculous heat spreader on it. Like pretty much all RAM it has a lifetime warranty so buy with confidence.

    The PNY-XLR8 16GB (2PK 8GB) 2.666GHz does everything it says and more!! I bought this recently to upgrade a new desktop PC I bought and now my PC runs faster and is able to run multiple applications at the same time without slowing down drastically. Would highly recommend this product to anyone looking to upgrade the desktop!

    Just a snappy little upgrade when I read that I needed 16gigs as compared to 8. Little boost in frame rate and operating speed!

    My step son has a newer alienware but in gaming you need lots of memory. His computer would often get the dreaded blue screen of death. While gaming I asked him to check the memory usage from the task manager,... at 90%. peak loading would kill the computer. I adding this memory and and a SSD, also from best buy (see that review). From day one of the install (very easy) till 3 months later, not one crash!

    Installed alongside a Core I3 9100F. Motherboard detected it as 2.4 GHz, which is the lowest speed the memory is rated for. The system doesn't really need bleeding-edge performance, so that's been fine for me and I haven't bothered trying to make it run faster. The machine I put it in has been running under load non-stop for 5 days and it hasn't had any issues. Would definitely buy again.
