I previously had one of these kits in my Asus Formula IV.

I now updated to a second kit and put it in. Cpu-z shows some discrepancy about the information on the third slot. The ram seems to work fine. I've opened enough applications to get to 15ish GB.
Edit: Ok I lied, at about 13.5 GB full of tabbed out games and excel documents I get a low ram warning, and things start crashing. I don't know if that's the computer not being able to keep up anymore, or the ram starts getting bad at about half of the stick.. (not sure how the ram gets filled..) (Processor is AMD 955 @ 4.1Ghz)
Is this just a bad reading from the board...or did I get a dodgy stick? I guess I have to test the new kit separately. Gone are the days of just buying something at the store and it just working.
