In my experience corsair memory has always been the memory to use in my home system. Even the non top price memory modules are still stellar performers.
Corsair's really going for it all with the products they're making for the enthusiast market. VERY glad to see it! These sticks would look killer in any rig.
To answer that question I could go into the great engineering, from low latency ram to blazing fast speeds. I could add in the incredible lifetime warranty or the terrific customer support. It is certainly true that those things make for a great memory company, but while those are great it is not really why Corsair memory kicks ass.
What makes Corsair memory kick ass is the fact that Corsair makes memory for overclockers by listening to hardcore gamers and overclockers, and then taking that input and combining great engineering to make memory that is seriously [H].
