if it was in the review i didnt catch it, but what is the MSRP on these anyway?

[Apoptosis]

It looks like $379.99 from the Corsair Store - https://shop.corsair.com/store/item_view.aspx?id=833269

A Dominator 1866MHz 6GB memory kit retails for $280 from Newegg, so the GT carries a $100 higher price tag... Both have the new Airflow fan and all.

Hi folks!

I was wondering... Is it possible to install 2x6GB of these Corsairs? I'm very interested in buying them, but 6GB is not enough for me ;)

All best

Yup. I even paired these sticks with a set of weak G.Skill DDR3-1600 2x3GB sticks and they worked fine but I couldn't run really tight timings.

not sure how credible these guys are since i only know of this site but thought this would be appropriate to post here since the model number reviewed was similar

We actually posted that yesterday - http://www.legitreviews.com/news/6155/

Just minutes ago I got a response from Kingston on the situation - http://legitreviews.com/news/6163/

Ahh..I made a point to look first before posting but I looked in all the wrong places. Sorry

..ouch..even on the front page too and I didn't look

My sticks are still alive and kicking, more or less. 1 stick is a little temperamental but it still functions correctly if I keep it out of the 3rd memory slot

Great Review,thanks:)

I killed 2 sticks yesterday, they no longer POST at 1333C9. I was benching SuperPi 16M for a contest and the system was really unstable so I shutdown and pulled everything apart. A few hours later I tested all the parts and poof, 2 sticks no longer work.
