    This isn't the top of the line memory, but it is a good product with a great price - especially when you think about convenience. If you don't have at least 8GB of memory, you need to upgrade! If you have open slots on your motherboard, get this and upgrade!

    I had to return the first one back to the store after I found it did not work. They gave me another one and had no problems. I have my second one now for 2 months. Price is lower then most other 8 gig ram in other stores by about 5 or 10 dollars. Return of first one was fast and easy. Thanks BestBuy!

    I kept getting shut down with the error message that my computer was almost out of memory. I switched out one 2GB card for these two 4GB cards, and my 6 year old HP/Compaq desktop is running faster than ever. Thank you to the Geek Squad team member who advised me upon my purchase!

    I recently built a new system that only had 2G of memory. I had been trying to run X-plane and my previous systems with less than 4G would frequently have problems with textures. After adding the PNY Memory, I haven't had a single texture dropout.

    I originally had 6 GB ram in my home PC with 2 free open memory slots so I wanted to increase my RAM. For the price of 8 GB Ram I couldn't go wrong. Popped the chips in, PC recognized additional memory and I now have 14 GB Ram.

    The memory worked perfectly and it was cheaper than buying the same product from Amazon, Newegg or TigerDirect and I was able to install the new memory immediately since I had it in hand and not on order.

    Did a refurb on a computer I bought. Upgraded sound card, video card, and memory. It would be hard to find anything comparable at twice my investment. The PNY memory upgrade was a definite boost in performance.

    Recently bought new Acer desktop. It came with 4gb of memory and it could be expanded up to 16gb. The PNY - Optima 2-Pack 4GB (8GB total) PC3-10666 DDR3 Desktop Memory Kit was an excellent upgrade.

    I was ready to buy a new computer and it was suggested to add more memory. For less than $75, I don't need to hear my husband complain about how slow the computer is anymore.

    This RAM went right in the PC, no problems after the PC saved the new memory configuration. Windows saw it right away and it passed a memtest 100%. No errors.

    The price was right I actually bought 2 packs to upgrade my machine to 16 gig of ram. The only problem is with my motherboard. To put the last simm in I acaully had to remove the video card because of how things are so tight in space. But other than that I have not had any problems. The heat sinks are working great and everything is workign well. I leave this machine on 24/7 since it's a server of mine.

    This item was easy to install and worked right out of the package. I am still unable to use the full memory on my PC because of the operating system limitations, but with this product I noticed a improvement in my PC's performance. I know that when I upgrade my operating system my PC will be a lot faster.

    The Memory made my Windows 8.1 machine respond a lot better with a lot of browsers open. It was 10 dollars off which put it in line with the best online prices for the equivalent memory. I has a heat sink which adds quality. Good memory for a good price.
