G.Skill Eco is amazing!

[delusion77]

Background: My friend asked me to build him a computer at a set budget, I ended up getting him 4GB of g.skill eco 1333Mhz 7-7-7-21 1.35v DDR3 ram. it was $99 CAD, so a good deal.

Why its amazing: Plugged it into his P55 board today and started to oc his system. I got the ram to 1600Mhz 7-7-7-23 @ 1.4v

IDK if its just me, but i think thats some great stuff right there. Where most kits on the market are 1.6v 9-9-9-24 and cost $120 and to get the high performance stuff you be paying $150 or more

If you need new dual chan. DDR3 GET THIS! (it also comes in a 1600Mhz @ 1.35v for $110, that stuff will probably be even better)

EDIT: noticed i had 7-7-7-21 but its -23

We have reviewed it, the kingston lovo is similair apart from its 1.25v for 1600mhz and 1.35v for 1866

I also have seen some nice reviews for the G.SKill ECO kits, mainly the 1600mhz Cl7 one. It does look like a good kit for the bucks, but your case is amazying. 1600 7-7-7 1.4V is insane.

I think with Gskill a lot of people are put off by the name. A friend of mine got some of that Ripjaw stuff and said it was just ludicrously fast.

Their SSDs aren't all that though.

Impressive, man. I'm in need for new RAM my self, but I think I'm getting 4GB Mushkin Redline. It's 6-8-6-24, 1,65 volts. I'm hoping to get it running at around 1800MHz with the same timings and volt of course. I can't rise that without know exactly what I'm doing. I don't want to grill my i5.
