Well..what can i say, i got my hands on few very good kits , which had amazing OC potentials, but at the end after like 3-4 month i ended up with sticks who couldnt run anymore bellow 2.3V :twisted: no metter what speeds/latency i used

2. Corsair Dominator
Way overpriced for something you cant actualy be sure what you will get

3. Kingston HyperX
That was on top of my list for buying new memory

Few days ago, i was browsing my local store RAM price list and i saw cool name for memory (Mushkin :D) , price was good, so i sayed to myself, lets see how these babies runs for other people, no point in rushing to buying new memory anyway. After few days of research of few forums, i have come to conclusion that actualy i didnt see people generaly had any problems with running that memory. So i went to store and just buyed Mushkin :D Still, 2 early after only few days to say anything about them, but i hope they will last longer than my last Ballistix kit that died after 6 months. Think my recommendation for other people from now on when they buying new memory gonna be Mushkin



Just to report that they are still working :D (24/7 use)

Mushkin >all

I was wondering if anyone ever did a review on Mushkin SSDs at reviews such as:

http://tweaktown.com
http://netbookreview.com
http://ssdeurope.com
http://www.anandtech.com

or any other site benchmarking SSDs against each other?
Since Mushkin use Indilinx controllers, we had no good results using 2x IO 128GB drives in RAID 0, which apparently was due to the controllers inability to work well in raided solutions... has mushkin anounced usage of the new Sandforce controllers?

Thanks for your replies.

Why did I choose Mushkin products???

Well, I have always known about Mushkin from various PC websites and memory reviews write ups. I just never took the dive and actually tried Mushkin (unitl now that is).

I was in the process of a new PC build on an EVGA X58 SLI Micro-ATX motherboard with an Intel Core i7 930 CPU and thought I had the memory vendor picked out and the online vendor for sourcing my memory needs. It seems that the memory kits I was going after (Triple Channel at a frequency of 2000) kept running out of supply and when they became available the price just kept going higher and higher from other memory vendors. Not Mushkin... The Mushkin Enhanced Redline (although it too had supply issues) stayed the same in price, had better timings and less extra garbage/baggage like other memory vendors.

I called Mushkin sales (Michael) to help me out. Not only did Michael get me my memory and at the same price as the online vendor, he helped me with my build parts selection and suggest starting footprint for adjusting and overclocking my rig.

My rig is up and I'm in the process of tweaking now, but I am very happy with the Mushkin products and support. You have a dedicated customer for life!!!!

Thanks Mushkin

i got this RAM coz the importer is a great friend of mine and also a great guy he recommended me this RAM for my uber system and i said why not

i mean i had corsair XMS3 and wasnt that happy with them so wanted better RAM so got mushkin

so the main reason is that xtreme graphics from INDIA is a great guy and he recommended me this so i got this primarily

I wish I could have chosen two options. The first being quality the second price. Now I voted based upon price, but I have to say the Mushkin quality name was also a very large part of my decision.
