    It works great! G.Skill Ares Blue 2 x 4 GB DDR3 2133 MHz CL9

    For my eleven year old PC with Asus Z87 PRO motherboard and Intel i7 4770 k processor I went from 8 to 16 GB because the maximum is 16 GB under Windows 7 family 64 bits.
    I ordered this pair of G.Skill Ares Blue Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 2133 MHz CL9 and I paired it in dual channel with G.Skill RipjawsX 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 2133 MHz CL9 because the timing is also identical = 9-11-10-28-2N.
    I had to think about positioning them well and pushing them in a bit hard (I had forgotten about this since the time...) and it works the first time and like a charm!!!

    Nickel.

    This is a very good product and it is very easy to use. They gave my PC a much needed facelift.

    Qualitative AMR

    Bought to match the same brand of power strips at the same frequency, voltage and timing (the 'Sniper' F3-17000CL9D-8GBSR) and for its slightly smaller size which makes it much easier to place under a CPU fan.

    No worries, they work nominally (frequency and timings as indicated) with the other two strips on an MSI Z87-GD65, just having to re-enable the XMP after installation to easily switch them to 2133 MHz.

    No frequency overclock or more advanced timing settings were attempted, however, so I don't know how far they can be pushed beyond the vendor's stated performance.

    So, a very good strip.

    For current buyers at the end of 2017

    Be careful! Do not buy ram currently, out of price! for example, I bought twice this kit of ram (thus 4x4 Go currently installed) Bought between 57 and 70 euros, the price is in the double today, wait for a fall as soon as the manufacturer will have known to palliate has the demand of memory of the smartphone. A real cancer these laptops!
    64GB on phones, nobody uses that much storage or memory...

    For the rest, the kit is of quality, G.Skill never disappointed. I'm not talking about Corsair and others...

    Very good

    Perfect with an ASUS Z97-PRO GAMER motherboard, an Intel Core i5-4670K and a big Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo cooler. I had already bought 2x4GB in 2015, and I added 2x4GB. Nothing to say, it hums.

    in line with my expectations

    I already had 8GB of this brand.
    I added a pair to go from 8GB to 16GB.
    Perfectly and immediately recognized by Windows 10, a real gain whether for 3D modeling or gaming.

    Very good

    No worries, installation is easy. No detection problems.

    High frequency and low latency make it an excellent choice for systems with an APU.

    I was expecting a darker blue, the top is really cyan.

    Their sober profile is a real plus considering the extravagance of some other models.

    Very satisfied (product and delivery)

    I had already ordered these strips in 2014.
    I added a pair in 2016 to go from 8GB to 16GB.
    Perfectly and immediately recognized by Windows 10, hyper stable, only happiness.
    I recommend them.

    Good memory sticks

    Nothing to say about this choice, they do their job, and GSKILL has become a reference in this field. No installation problems, even with a large ventirad installed. The heat sink is efficient, and the blue design is good. The performance is the same, with good DDR3 and good clocking. A purchase that I absolutely do not regret.

    Thanks again to LDLC and the carrier.
