    I'm confused! Or rather, was :p

    GeIL are a very good brand - they used to be considered as good or better than Corsair, but they moved to the private and military sectors a few years ago, and have only just returned to the public sector.

    I myself have 4GB of the same RAM I linked you to, it's brilliant stuff, and overclocks better than XMS3

    Nice one, just ordered a sandy bridge system. I just hope I don't get some of the issues reported for the Asus boards.

    Bah I just built my Sandy Bridge rig with 4GB... might as well grab an 8GB kit now and then sell the 4GB later when prices go up again I suppose lol

    It's okay, I'll never need more than this 6GB of RAM to be honest.
