    Maybe not Threadworthy, but still a Great Deal. Come Inside.

    The Samsung 30nm low profile seems to be the go to choice, I picked it up for my Ivy build, I have not had anytime to assemble or tweak it yet. Less than $100 (89$) for 16 gigs. There are allot of reviews out there on it.

    Well how do they work, whats the benefits? I don't know a thing about either or how I could utilize them. :confused:

    Intel Ivy Bridge Processor IPC and Overclocking @ [H]

    Why clock them both at 4gig and set the memory at the same speed on both and then run tests? Is it just me or is that just a bland way to test, I would think it would be max stable on both and max memory speeds and then compare.Let them slug it out maxed out. Thank you for the review.

    Do we have any eta's for when the 4gb models are due out, or just a wait and see?
