Like the title says 2GB G.Skill DDR500 only $146 at newegg.com! Big instant saving and then a MIR. Pretty sweet deal considering they are usually ~$200.

I have these sticks running at 264 currently and have gotten them up to 273 100% stable! Great memory IMHO!

3-4-4 at 250mhz to be exact. In fact, some people run them at 3-4-4-6.

Yes it is amazing but not for me plus tax is killing the deal so I'll pass on this one

Ditto. Damn Newegg and their ever-changing prices. "Oh, that sold well. Let's drop the price $33 after everybody sent in their UPC and receipt for the rebate, so they can't send them back and buy them for the cheaper price..."

I just paid 197 for these about a month ago. Bloody! Probably because DDR is soon to be obsolete. Still good memory if you don't plan on drastically upgrading your system anytime soon...

So glad I don't play games that need 2gb, and by the time I do... these will be even cheaper.

In any case, great deal...

These just keep going down in price, they are $2 cheaper now, haha. I wish I couldve gotten a sweet deal like this when I ordered mine.

Yeah I didnt just see an improvement in games. Everything seemed all around faster. I let my dad use my 2GB of ram and all he does is play with photos and do taxes and even he said he saw a huge speed increase. IMO 2GB is totally worth the money.

How does this compare to the Patriot DDR500 at Monarch (http://www.monarchcomputer.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=M&Product_Code=141507&Category_Code=DDR-PDP) for $127?

Same here. I am running it at 200mhz, no divider. Great RAM, does stated timings with no problem. I would buy a 2 X 2GB set (4GB) if it was available, of this stuff with no question.

I think anyone that plays games beyond the scope of Hearts and Minesweeper will see a noticable difference with 2 gigs versus 1 gig at the same timings. I know I did.
