Pros: I got this RAM about three years ago when they were just beta testing DDR2 RAM. Aliens came down from a special ship and provided me with these ultra low latency modules. I had a P5K when ASUS was pushing out the final P2B-F. I've been overclocking since the 1960s with vaccuum tube diodes and crystal synthesisers. I must say that Racheal is the love of my life and aliens can never abduct her. I didn't mind the probe, tho.

Cons: Pretty expensive. I paid around 90 times what Newegg is asking. Well that's what my medical bill was after the probe.

Other Thoughts: Aliens were pretty nice. Matrix abilities were also noted as in the previous review.

Wow, this guy missed his calling. By my computations, that's a 750% improvement. Oh well, I guess he was almost close...

Pros: for an older computer with nothing but pci slots this works pretty good for what i wanted it for. a little slow on the fps on WoW but considering before the upgrade it was running at 4fps and now it averages 30fps i would say that is 110% improvement

Cons:
none so far other than i had to go to website to download updates and make sure driver was properly installed for some reason it would not recognize the setup file on the disk. paid the extra for rush shipping and ups lost the package for a day and a half not neweggs fault though


Other Thoughts:
decent card for an older mobo with only pci slots.

Default Best Newegg Review Ever

This has to be the funniest Newegg review I've ever read! The guy has made history, overclocking his X2 4800+ to 7.2GHz, which is just too fast to handle. Solution? Remove a memory module!

I'm wondering...of all those retarded reviews that have been posted, how many are from forum members who are too embarrassed to admit it?
