  This product is cheap and working great on my Dell desktop computer. If a person is thinking about upgrading his/her computer, consider buying this item and save some money. :)
  
  

• Great price for good RAM

  
  By A39T0L7SX0BQ8R on 2007-08-09
  The price is right. I bought two sets for my Asus MN2 SLI Deluxe. Doesn't like over clocking memory speed but hey, thats not what I paid for. 4GB of dual channel gets a lot done with a ram hog game. Sure it's not the fastest available but it has fairly low latency and gets the job done. It's a great value as long as you respect the stock clock speed.

  These are the main ingredient that I use when building a power house computer. Four of these will provide you with trouble free daily use of your desktop computer system. Hats off once again to Kingston.........
  
  
• Installed in a Dell Inspiron 531
  By A2KAKBTDZO86UB on 2008-03-02
  I just installed this memory in a Dell Inspiron 531. I know it's helpful to know if it goes into the exact computer you have.
  
  It did give it a noticeable boost in speed. I have the AMD athlon 64 X2 dual core processor with dual channel memory. The memory must be installed in pairs, and this Kingston item IS a pair ( 2 modules, each 1 Gig = 2 gig total.) My computer came with 1 Gig ( 2 modules of 512MB each,)so I went from 1 Gig to 3. Don't trust the Dell Support Center software. After I installed the memory, the Dell software showed I had only 2 Gig total, but the Windows SYSTEM control panel showed 3007MB ( 3 Gig. )
  
  Be careful, a lot of the search results you get end up being the wrong memory. Every time I thought I had the right memory it was either SODIMM memory, which isn't the right kind for the 531, or it was only a single module, not 2. This is also the correct voltage (1.8) and speed ( PC2-5300 which is the same as 667 Mhz )I wasn't concerned with overclocking, just compatability. Some of the more expensive gaming memory is rated 800Mhz but they are 2.0 or 2.1 V and might have to be manually adjusted to work, which sounded like a pain, plus I think that'w why the Amazon reviews were not as good.
  
  The cover of the computer was easy to remove ( just 2 screws.) Be sure to have an anti-static wrist band on and clap it to unpainted metal. then you just have to push the little plastic locking handles outward on the memory sockets and install the modules. They sit easliy in the slots, but you have to push down pretty firmly to get the locking handles to pop back up. Two of the locks locked by theselves as I pushed down. I had to help the other two.
  
  Hope this is helpful to Inspiron 531 owners.

• RAMming Speed!!!
  By ABSS3RJQR6WKS on 2007-12-13
  Went from 1Gb to 4, and "marked improvement" is not an adequate description.
  Delivery was quick, install was quicker. 4Gb for under $100 was too good to pass by. RAM upgrades are bar none the best thing you can do for any system hands down, and should be the first step in any system upgrade.
  
  
• Excelent
  By A3LTB4XCB079T9 on 2007-09-28
  Excelente aunque lo compre por error la persona a la que se lo traspase quedo contenta con el producto.
  
  
• good product
  By A185VHJ04ULJI4 on 2008-01-18
  amazon has come through for me once again - this is a very good product, although it is supposed to be 2gbs, it only shows 1gb on my pc info.
  
  
• Great product,great price.
  By A87NSHCNP3WXJ on 2008-02-14
  Running Vista home premium on 1gb of memory was an exercise of patience I got tired of. An upgrade to 2gb made a big difference. Opening or closing any application is like flipping a switch. There's virtually no wait. I've noticed spyware/virus scans go quicker too. The install took all of 5 minutes and my pc recognized the upgrade immediately with no problems. All this for less than $40 shipped to my door.
  
  
• Idiot-proof
  By A1Z5GJ9ZT65RNE on 2008-02-17
  I've never even seen the innards of my PC, let alone attempted an upgrade. But I followed the instructions, and it worked beautifully! I am so pleased with this purchase.
  
  
• Value Ram
  By AMLWXRICROVLZ on 2008-02-22
  The kingston ram worked out of the box and is still working with no problems to report. The price was good, the service from Amazon was excellent. Highly recommend Amazon and Kingston.
  
  
• Affordable and Fast
  By AOJA1LC8PN7K1 on 2008-02-24
  As usual, Kingston is a great quality product with excellent compatibility. I used this memory in a Dell Dimension 9100 with no problems. The memory also is faster than my A-Data 800mhz modules used in a newer PC. You can't beat $40 for 2GB of DDR2 667mhz memory. Runs cool too.
  
  
• 2GB memory kit is a fantastic value
  By AUHZ4CZUOSJVT on 2008-03-03
  This was a great value for the money and made my Dell 530S with Vista Home Premium screem. The memory just plugged in to make a total of 3GB over what came from Dell. Dell wanted several times more money for the same amount of memory.
  
  
• Easy setup
  By A3Q9YMLTX020BA on 2008-03-10
  Unpacked it, installed in my Shuttle XPC SD31P and its done. No problem at all. Very happy with it.
  
  
• Excellent Value for those in the know
  By A17AYYS0M8G6CJ on 2008-03-15
  If you're comfortable doing the research, or are very computer savvy, these
  memory sticks are the best bang for the buck. Most sites like Crucial/Kingston don't list the value lines when using their automated tool for finding the proper item for your specific application. After doing some research, and by using the technical specs of the top dollar memory, it was relatively easy to match a value line product by comparing numbers... and then get the good price from... you guessed it, Amazon! Side notes:
  I had to install this pair in the 1 > 2 slots. Box wouldn't fire up when in slots 3 > 4, behind originally installed memory. Also, since my comp has dual thread tech, memory MUST be installed in pairs to maintain that capability.
  
  
• prompt refund
  By A119KJ71X59U5Y on 2008-03-21
  product didn't work with my system, and I returned it. It was easy to return, and my purchase prices was refunded promptly. Good job.
  
  
• Mejor precio IMPOSIBLE!
  By A3AWCYZRM0PA20 on 2008-04-02
  2 módulos de 1gb, en mi país, son extremadamente costosos, la razón de calidad - precio ofertada en esa memoria es incomparable. Conozco y trabajo desde hace muchos años con esta marca y en verdad es excelente.
  
  
• Works Great for my Gateways, HP's and Dells
  By A3QQGPI3CTV9SX on 2008-04-17
  Can't beat the price compared to the rip-off of the names I mentioned above for such products from each. I perosnally like HP, Dell and Gateway and have been fortunate to not have equip problems with any of them, however, when it comes to accessories or add-ons, you've got to look outside of the big named coglomerates. do your research, check reviews and such at Cnet and PC Mag on these types of items as well aas here on Amazon.
  
  
• Very nice
  By ABN04D5GIAK3B on 2008-04-29
  I have had no problems with this product. Right speed and just right for my needs.
  
  
• Kingston "live support"? Does not exist
  By A2ZHXWSZNVK9F7 on 2008-05-21
  Kingston ValueRam 2GB 667MHz DDR2 Non-ECC CL5 DIMM (Kit of 2)
  
  Purchased above item following Kingston screen prompts, wound up with memmory that did not fit into the memory slots in my EMachine [not a model currently listed]. Probably an error in selection on my part.
  
  I completed the Kingston "live support" protocol twice within the last week to try and arrange an exchange, but have received no return call, and don't see an alternative contact method handy.
  
  This is not a pleasant experience.
