I guess they take requests :p

What is the difference between this and the x series and will they play nice together?

Price match?
 

I just bought these 2 days ago for retail price ($85). Does anyone know if Newegg credits back the difference? I haven't even received the product yet. Please help! I want it at this price!

Can't you just refuse delivery and order this deal now?

But it's on the way now. I don't think I can stop it from coming :(

Maaan, I got in on that kingston 1.65v ram last week. Oh well!

Go talk to a CSR on live chat. Complain about this and ask them to "meet you half way" or something. If you buy a lot of stuff often or have an 8 year old account or something, i'm sure they'll find a way to help you. I've chatted with newegg CSRs twice and both times my wishes were granted. :)

They have the same specs so i would assume they would work together. Just different look and heat sinks i believe

No, what I mean is leave a note or speak with the delivery driver and tell them you're refusing shipment. They'll just send it back to Newegg.
If you take delivery, you can also do a Return To Sender as long as it's not opened. Not sure how Newegg handles that though.
They may charge restocking fee but I'm not sure since I've never done that.

Per NEWEGG website:

What should I do if I have placed a duplicate order by mistake?

Please click here to go to My Account [newegg.com] to view all of your orders. From here, you can confirm if you placed a duplicate order or not. If you see the duplicate order, you can cancel it on that page.

We will void the order for you as long as it has not yet been invoiced or shipped. If duplicate orders have been shipped, obtain the tracking number(s) for the order(s) you do not want and call the shipping carrier to refuse those shipments.
You will be refunded in full when those items are returned to Newegg.

Epic. Was waiting for a good no-rebate ram deal. Tyvm!

Since it's a % off code, there are bound to be some good deals on rebate items, too. Just in case this pair isn't exactly what you're looking for.

You can try putting "wrong address" or "no such person" on the envelope and then mail it back at a local post office, they in turn is required to send it back to the sender. *USE AT YOUR OWN RISK*

A quick calculation seems to be around $50 (same as kingston deal with Rebate)

seems like a good choice too

and this as well if you want better timings

i own this working good 400+ reviews 5 eggs

Oops! Already posted, along with the 72-hour 15% off desktop memory code.

Super! In for one. Thanks!

thanks in for 1 , looks like promo code no longer works ?

Just bought the kingston one for $50 AR yesterday... but these for $55 are better. Time to buy and RMA the kingstons

thanks. got my 2nd kit...
bought this last Christmas for 99$... so 55$ is a great price to fill the empty slots and have 16GB :)

That's what she said!

:woot:

umm, this drops down to $45 and I buy another set

hmmmm, already got 8GB in my PC. Should I upgrade?

Thanks for the post. 24gig on the way. :D

Finally jumped on a set of this!

trust me. there is a reason why this is the cheapest ram on the planet.

What am I ever going to do with all this memory?

And that is?

I have the 4GB version of this (2x2) in the I7 box I built for my wife ~ 2 years ago... and it's always worked great...

Yeah, I'd like to know as well. G.Skill rocks.

Dude probably received a bad kit and is now convinced that every single G.Skill product is crap :shake:

FWIW, I bought the same RAM when it was $130 for 16gb several months ago, and they've worked flawlessly.

I'd buy more except I already have 4gb spares already... but it's rediculous how fast the prices of RAM are dropping.

Just bought one ... if only I could afford the rest of the parts my new pc build would be well on its way

This is not an issue. Just call or chat online. I got the blue colored version of this set which is little more expensive but after the discounts I would have saved $26 (I paid $89.99 last week). I spoke to someone this morning and they refunded back the $26

My motherboard also had dropped in price by $15 and I got that refunded

You should always keep watch at prices after the first week of delivery. Newegg will refund the difference

*I should also mention that I've been a loyal Newegg customer since 2002 so not sure if that makes a difference

Will This Work With a 2011 I-Mac?
 

Will This Work With a 2011 I-Mac?

Looks like this one is not intel certified XMP.
And I found http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...6820231428
It looks like exactly same except higher price and intel XMP.
What is Intel XMP certified anyway Does this really make change ?

This is slick deal. Thanks Selma.repped.

Troll

I know. Because it's SLICK!

Awesome. Just picked up the 1333 ram last week, but I'm gonna give these a go as well. Im sure ill be able to unload the 1333's for what I paid for them. Thanks selma!

New customer coupon NEWCUSTOMER10 for $10 off. Could save you more.

just a mention, it does not stack with newcustomer10 code for new accounts

I know it should work fine, but has anyone installed 3 kits together in an X58 machine with success?

For what it's worth, the 1333 version of this ram worked perfect at rated speed in my core i5 2500k system despite not being rated for sandy bridge. It also overclocked very easily with just a small bump in voltage and loosening up the primary timings by 1 each. I picked up this 1600 ram to bring the voltage back down and reduce core temps since the memory controller is now on the CPU with these chips.

16GB RAM...check. C'mon Bulldozer!

nice deal! thanks, selma!

This ram is better or kingstone ?

this one is, kingston requires 1.65v

I have a question about this. I have 3 of 1 GB each DR3 1600 memory chips in my i7 computer and i thought they run triple channel and that is why i bought three and put them in three slots.

if i buy two of these and add to existing configuration, how will that run triple channel. i am guessing it will not. can someone please explain this to me ?

man just ordered this 2 weeks ago for 59.95
ah well good ram, runs great in my system.

MY motherboard is X58 PRO-E I have 3 kingstone ram already can I use this ram with the kingstone?

they wont. these are sold to people looking to populate 2 or 4 slots not 3 or 6. For triple channel i7 rigs look at the 3x2gb kits (many are on sale) and the 3x4gb kits

Snagged. I was going to post this my self. Haha, good find!

Has anyone confirmed if this this will work in a Vostro 230? I just bought it from a deal the other day and was looking to upgrade the ram.
Edit: I should have used google before posting this. :) This is from a review on newegg:

"I took a chance and put in two sticks of G.Skill DDR3 Ripjaws (item # N82E16820231311). The Vostro 230 (w/ bios ver 1.2, as shipped) had no trouble recognizing all 8 Gigabytes. I then did a fresh install of 64-bit Windows Pro. This model shipped with the 32-bit OS, but the the product key (on a label on top) works to activate the 64-bit, which is necessary to use all that lovely ram."

In for 1!

Slowly building a new rig for when BF3 comes out...and this is a pretty solid deal!

Thanks OP :)

how low is too low?

stupid question but my mobo supports triple channel memory for my i7 920. i've seen a bunch (and only) of memory deals for a pack of 2. if i do this deal does that i mean i have to buy 2 sets and not be able to use the 4th stick?

Yes, thats one way to do it. This is a "dual channel" kit. Newegg also sells these chips individually, so you could buy the dual channel, and just add a single stick. Or look for a "triple channel" kit.

I think this is the single stick: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...-_-Product

Youll save 15% on that too, but the 41 dollar price isn't too sweet to begin with.

Thanks! In for a set to get me more RAM.
Not sure about your new look, Selma. You look like a Muppet styled your hair, or you had it caught in a pasta maker.

Whats the the difference between X and the non x?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...6820231428

Hi, I am new to this pc stuff. I just orded the dell xps 8300 i7 system. It has 4 dimms and the memorry runs at 8 GR DDR3 SDRAM 1333 MHz. I want to upgrade to 16gb and this being DDR 1600. Will this work or be compatable? Thanks

There's no technical difference; all the specs are the same. It's just the heatsink that's different.

choose UPS 3 day delivery, if you dont want to wait 4 more days !

This for sure!!! I forgot to choose UPS and it took a full week last time, and its only 1 state away. I usually get my UPS ground the next day.

I have dell xps 8300 i7 too. I believe dell motherboard only lets you run max @1333 MHz.

I recently just put together new rig with 2500k processor. My system kept freezing when i play games. It took my 3 days to figure out that sandy bridge is very picky with memory. I basically use the memory from my dell xps 8300 and they r not compatible.

same s...t happened,my g.skill getting delivered today took 7 days -(2 state).
usually 2 days for me.

I ordered the memory before seeing this thread. I was able to get $10 refund after chatting with eggcelent agent. Make the deal even sweeter.

Damn! I just bought a Corsair Vengeance 8gb 1600 for $86 on Amazon, I couldn't resist and picked up the G SKILLS deal!

Should I return the Corsair? or keep it and run 16gb?

Just bought Mushkin DDR3 ram a few days ago for ~80. Oh well... Great deal!

ah this is what i feared. thanks for the response. just seems like us triple channel folks are sort of getting the raw end of the deal on all these ram deals.

Will this work with my HP 6610f? Thanks

Specs from motherboard

•Four DDR3 DIMMs (240-pin) sockets
◦PC3-8500 (DDR3-1066)
◦PC3-10600 (DDR3-1333)

can you mix 1333 with 1600 RAM?

yes but not recommended.

I'm going to be upgrading my MoBo and CPU very soon (from a very outdated AMDx64).

Should I buy the RAM last or jump on this (or a similar deal)? I know prices are dropping but how much can I expect things to drop if I won't finish the build for 1-3 months?

thanks but can you give some more details? why isnt it recommended?

great memory and price. i picked up my first pair almost a month ago for $100 with a free 2gb usb stick. then bought a second pair a few weeks ago for $85 for a total of 16GB on my i7 2600K and Z68 gigabyte mobo. my WEI score for the ram is 7.9 and it's not OC'd. though i spent more on the ram than this deal, i'm not gonna go through the hassle of price matching. this memory is great, stable, and compatible. at this price, it's a great deal!

Will this work in new iMac 2011 models?

I wish it would be 2x8GB: I badly need 24Gb for me HyperV/Gaming rig.

Mac uses an entirely different type of ram. Physically different slots.

I have three X58 rigs in our household and have found that sales/deals/promotions on triple channel "kits" tend to happen only infrequently. With the release of Sandy Bridge, it has only gotten worse. Do what I've done and just bite the bullet and buy more memory than you need. For those triple channel folks, it is just as economical to buy 2 dual channel "kits" (4 sticks in total) and still have one "orphan" for potential resale or another rig.

This is a fantastic deal on quality RAM. I've had no issues in AMD790, 785, 890 or Intel H55, P67, Z68, or X58 motherboards. 1.5v for the win.

someone with more technical expertise might be able to answer, but I remember with the c2d chipsets, you could technically run an ODD # of RAM chips, say 3 or 5, and the system would take the pairs, run them in dual channel, and the orphan stick in single channel.

I'm not sure if this works in X58 systems, but if the same system applies, your first 3 sticks will run in triple channel, giving you 6 or 12gb, and then your last stick will run in single channel. It's at least not a performance penalty, and if anything you get a *slight* boost over your initial 3 sticks. Of course the option is always to sell because to some 12gb is already plenty, and that extra 4gb in single channel is basically... worthless.

Have an x58 asus p6x58d-e mobo running i7 920.....currently it has 3x2GB of Corsair XMS3 CMX6GX3M3C1600C7:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...6820145286

I got it due to the tight timings and it has been performing phenomenally. Anyone know what's the best upgrade path for me if I want to add 3X4GB to the remaining 3 dimm slots...in regards to timing, cas latency, speed? Do I have to match or down/up-clock one set to match the other, fiddle with bios settings, etc.?

Don't really wanna sell the 6GB i have now, which i bought for $149 a year ago -_-

Thanks op. Got 10 to go into the 10 dell vostro 230 i bought

In for two! 16GB for $119 on the way!

Oops, mistook the 4GB for the 8GB, thought the price had dropped even more. In for 1! Time to upgrade to 16GB and spoil my virtual machines silly.

You should just be prepared to use only 12GB if you buy a new set. X58 is pretty picky with all the memory channels full. It might work, it might not. Won't hurt to try.

1) You really really really really don't need to upgrade. 8GB is whole lot of RAM and you will not benefit at all from going up to 16GB. Very few people run any programs that can take advantage of more than 6GB of RAM, and no offense intended but if you are asking questions about RAM compatibility then you are not one of those people.

2) Sounds like your Dell has four 2GB sticks of memory, meaning if you bought this you'd have 2 sticks of 2GB and 2 sticks of 4GB, and two different brands in there. Not a good idea.

3) As someone pointed out, Dell's motherboards may not even support higher RAM speeds. Not that you even need it... the benefit from anything above DDR3 1333 is barely even measurable, much less noticeable.

BTW if anyone is like me and thinking "I might as well build a microATX computer, it's smaller and more compact, plus the motherboard's cheaper".... don't do it.

I bought this RAM 6 weeks ago (at a higher price, even after a rebate) only to discover my crappy microATX board doesn't leave enough room to add RAM with tall heatsinks on it. MicroATX is silly for anything other than a momputer, the slight savings isn't worth it.

hmm great price and opportunity to upgrade my HTPC from 4gb to 12gb, probably overkill but for this price whatever benefit i get from more than 4gb is worth it.

Your situation is slightly complicated since there are differences between the two kits. Subtle or significant is debatable depending on your point of view. Density, CL timing, voltage, and manufacturer are dissimilar. Chances are probably so-so that you'll be able to run the Ripjaws at 1600 CL7 with a voltage boost to run at CL7 (the same speed as your XM3's). Likewise, you could run your XM3's at CL9.

Perhaps the biggest gotcha is X58's IMC. From my experience (and it seems like others) x58 boards are really very persnickety when running with all 6 banks populated. Be prepared to give a voltage boost to your IMC for stability.

Be prepared to spend a lot of time with memtest to confirm that whatever speed, voltage, CL you run at. This will be time well spent...

LOL @ "momputer".

NVM. I just saw Chocobo's reply. Thanks

The coupon code posted also works for this RAM:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...6820231445

After looking at specs and reviews from other websites, it's able to overclock over the rated 1600 spec, as well as run tighter timings; all around, supposedly superior to the standard ripjaw x ram posted in OP. For only $64 shipped after discount, I picked this up instead :nod:

Regular 89.99, discounted $15, and another $11 with the posted discount code in the OP = $64 shipped

does anybody know if these are compatible with the sniper [newegg.com]?

I was pretty close to building a MicroATX computer.. glad i didn't :nod:

I think the Rip jaw X CAS 8 at 1600mhz is a better deal. Its $9 more and comes with a free 2gb usb stick to make up the $9 difference. So for $9 more, u get a better performer and a free usb stick,

2. G.skill 8gb (2x4gb) CAS 8 @1.5V - For $74.99 ($64.00) after coupon code with free 2gb usb.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...6820231445

Yup, that's what I said too in the post above yours haha. I think it's worth the few extra bucks if you intend on overclocking above the rated 1600 spec.

I use 16GB of this, have 8GB of it are running as a RAMDISK [fortunecity.com] where I point all temp folders to it. Together with having Win7 64bit on a C300 SSD, my system really rocks.

I brought the same kind of RAM here but it's a 1333. Is it ok to mix the 1333 with this one (the 1600)? And if it's ok but not recommended, why not?

wow.. prices fell so low.. got this during BF last yesr for 120 something i guess.. don't remember was it 99$

I'm sorry but what? Your board doesn't leave enough space, or your case doesn't? Most microATX motherboards have nothing over the RAM slots. I have a microATX motherboard running in my system right now with two of these and have loads of room on top of the RAM slots. In fact, I just ordered another set.

Perhaps your're thinking of ITX? But even then, the case would be the limiting factor and not the motherboard.

I agree, what? This is a non sequitur.

To say that mATX boards are only good for "momcomputer" builds is a bit of a stretch. Also, to blame the motherboard for not being able to fit tall memory heatsinks is all a bit perplexing. Perhaps you are thinking about a specific tower CPU cooler+mATX case+mATX mobo combo that is limited to heatspreader heighth..

mATX motherboards can be used to build a pretty formidable rig. It all depends on what you are trying to accomplish. Case in point, look at this little beast [asus.com]

Great deal!

Don't blame mATX. This is your fault.

As a home builder it is unrealistic to have the testing facilities of a pro company but at least you could have done some minimal research first. Checking clearances between ram heatsinks and the case or the cpu HSF is something you could have asked about (or found already asked about) on the internet. This is 0% the fault of the mATX standard and 100% your fault.

I brought the same kind of RAM here a week ago but it's a 1333. Is it ok to mix the 1333 with this one (the 1600)? And if it's ok but not recommended, why not?

Chances are you'll be fine. Just run them both at 1333 at the specified timings. They may well be the same exact part, but they take better performing sticks and market it as 1600.

I'm not sure if I need 16gb of ram, but I now have it. Gotta :heart: Selma!

This will pretty much fit on any mobo compatible with DDR3 right? It doesn't matter whether it's an intel P67 mobo or AMD AM3 or an older generation one?

In a nutshell, in most circumstances, yes. You might need to futz with voltages and/or timings, but I'd feel confident that this kit will work for most rigs without too much finagling.

Yea...that's what I figured: complexity. I remember reading somewhere on Anandtech, I think, where it was stated that x58 platform is the most flexible in terms of RAM upgrade path, such as going from 3X2GB --> 3X2GB + 3X4GB --> 6X4GB. Something along those lines...can't remember what else was said, but I will try to find that article again. I really don't want to remove the 6GB I have in there considering how much I spent on them at the time of purchase, at least not now...

$55 for an 8 GB of this awesome RAM? This just pushed me to do an upgrade to P67 and an i5 2500k. Darn it, Slick Deals. Why must you always make me spend money!?

I thought you could safely put higher specced ram in as long as you were careful to make sure to slow down the faster ram in bios.

Price has risen to $84.99.

^ Wow, good thing I bought it now and to think later...

One reviewer on September 21st, 2010 said:

I originaly purchased 2 seperate 4GB sticks @ around $150 a piece, the price droped and they offered a promo code got 2 sticks for $189. you cant beat that what an amazing deal for this amazing RAM. I'm up to 16Gb now ;maybe I'll purch 8 more,to bad the sale ends tomorow the 22nd, hopefuly they'll keep the price reduced you cant go wrong with @ $95 a stick

What a difference 9 months makes!

whats the difference between the ram posted here (model F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL) and the one posted a couple weeks ago Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL?

the timing on this ram is: 9-9-9-24-2N

and on the other one it's: 9-9-9-24

what does the 2N stand for?

thanks.

I did the same thing with last weeks deal on the 1333 ram. Trust me, you'll be happy you upgraded. You can always flip your old combo on ebay and recoup some of the expense. All in all, I'm only out about 150 for the upgrade to the 2500k from a q6600.

I got 16GB of this stuff for my main comp and it's running nicely. I'm just a bit upset that I paid about $90 per 8GB for this stuff about 8 months ago.

dead? im seeing $78 after coupon

Try looking at rams for laptops.

Looks dead. Seeing $71..:mad:

Yeah the promo code still works but the base price has been raised back up. The Blue Rip Jaws X series with the free flash drive is now a better deal.

No more free flash drive there as well

bought one but wished I bought two! GRR.

but man, 16gb of DDR3 is kinda overkill... NAHHHHH!

will any other brand w/ the same specs go well w/ these?

16gb running at 1600 9-9-9-24 1.5v passed Memtest86 :)

thanks selmabot

bought 10 sets. All 10 work fine. Its good to have 8 gigs of ram in here.
