opinion on corsair artic white?
Newegg.com - CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CML8GX3M2A1600C9W

I know you can't go wrong with the tall vegeance one. But i hear OC prefer lower voltage RAM. |

it solves the larger CPU issue and flaky heatsink design. As far as stability, I can not comment. I suppose it will be nice for the enthusiasts.

Wait for the reviews to come out.
Did you know flat black radiates and absorbs heat the best?

I was thinking in giving it a try and do a review. By the way I read it comes with lifetime warranty. But would OC void the warranty?? I know that in case it was to be void what they don't know won't hurt them.
 David you lost me, but are you trying to say the way the Artic white was design would suck more heat than the tall mohawk vegeance ones?? |

Like you have been advised in your other thread, get the LOW PROFILE ram.
