Lowest price according to http://camelcamelcamel.com/Kingston-HyperX-FURY-2x8GB-1866MH…
The shipping cost is about US $5.59, much cheaper than local stock.
Edit: US $85.99

Hope you're not using Warehouse1 for that baseline local price comparison given the comments about their service on WP:

Otherwise the cheapest local price from a non drop-shipper would be $165 from Umart and then $179 from PCCG ex shipping.
$148+
Plenty to choose from. Many (most?) need shipping added.
Which adds to the local cost, making the Amazon deal more attractive with $130 delivered to your door.
Megabuy - $149
UMart - $149
ARC - $151
IJK - $152
Skycomp - $154
All covered under my $150ish. Wasn't meant to be an exact science. Given the number of stores, postage may or may not be needed.
Also AUD$130 is direct conversion of Amazon price, not including conversion fees etc.
Don't get all worried about the details!
@Spackbace:
No conversion fees when using a 28degrees card.
Megabuy - $165 with shipping
Umart - $165 ex shipping:

Sigh Thanks for the neg.
In case you didn't realise, I didn't neg the deal, merely offered the price differences. Practically doing the OPs job for them.
But hey, if it's such a good deal, why dont you upvote it?
I didn't neg you, but thanks for assuming. I give any mod who's around permission to confirm it if they wish to.
@Cobalt_:
I guess I touched a nerve with some folks. Neg away, don't worry you won't hurt my feelings!
I have the red version. As I look at my memory usage over the past year, it never goes above 13 GB during my work intensive times. Probably no point upgrading to 32 GB Ram.
Good to know. Upgraded my Macbook pro to 8gb and have been maxing it out pretty often. 16 is the way to go
32 gb are for RAM drives.. one want to run more than two VM environments? RAM drive is the pick :)
Anyone had any luck with these in a microserver (N54L in particular) ?
I don't have these to try, but I have installed 2 x 8gb Strontium 1333Mhz and they work without issues ( I know its not answering your question directly).
Also at work I think I ended up installing 2 x 8gb G-Skill 1333 (or was it 1600?) and our N54L has been working with that. Last time I checked the server 2 days ago it had clocked up 357 days up-time and counting.
I actually thought they needed ECC.
Officially 8GB ECC yes but a lot of people have had success with 16GB standard.
Interesting! Modified BIOS, I wonder. Locked-out otherwise, I would think.
I've got 8GB (2x4GB) G-Skill Ripjaws-X DDR3 1600 in my PC. Would these either replace or work alongside them?
MOBO: ASRock Z68 Pro3 B3 : http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z68%20Pro3/
Yep, looks like there's 4 slots (2 pairs), so should work together fine? Can someone with better knowledge pls confirm?
Yeah they should work fine, they will run at 1600Mhz to match your other RAM though.
Thank-you! :)
As much as people below are calling out stability issues, I've personally had no issues mixing RAM, worst that happens is it doesn't work and you sell the current 8gb!
@XeKToReX: i 2nd that, using 4GB +8GB both are from diff brand too. It'd been more than a year now, no problem so far.
No. DOn't use them together. Just upgrade to these.
Why? Isn't 24GB at 1600Mhz better than 16GB at 1866Mhz?
I could possibly overclock the G-Skills to 1866.
See above from tendollar
Memory is … ummm … I forgot…. umm.. oh yeah a funny thing…. Generally speaking a system should cope with mixed memory, but for reliability and stability it's best to have the same batch of ram in a system (ie you buy a quad pack of memory instead of two dual packs if you can)
When I spoke to a system engineer (mind you this was a few years back) I was told not to mix memory in servers because they may run fine for a few weeks than randomly reboot out of the blue or lock up.
I'm sure there is anecdotal evidence on the net for and against mixing but if I wanted a reliable system with peace of mind I'd get all the same modules. As each system has different (both in hardware and software configurations) there is no 100% way of knowing how a system will perform.
Just my two memory modules….
@digitalaxon: Agreed. I've mixed, and not mixed. Mixing realllly isn't ideal.
Need to first think about how much RAM you really need. No point dropping speed of all RAM, to have a ton excess you'll never use.
Just thinking of the After Effects/Premiere Pro stuff I play around with at home.
I capture video from various sources as well (hi-8, VHS… remember those?), but I don't think I'd need any extra ram for that.
Should be fine for capture, may see the advantage of additional ram (over 16gb) if you were encoding as well or editing.
You can try to mix the RAMs but there is no guarantees it will work seamlessly together.
If your motherboard utilises dual channel, so long as you have matching pairs of sticks for each channel and run at (lowest of the sets) standard clocks you shouldn't run into problems.
Generally you want same sticks if you are overclocking and if running quad channel you don't want to be mixing and matching sticks from different manufacturers or batches that aren't matched.
Source: Have run mixed sticks in various old builds when friends have upgraded and passed on their old, no longer used, sticks to me.
At the end of the day, while they should be fine together, I'm only running 16GB now in my new build as are most other people I know. Unless you are doing a lot of multitasking/rendering/encoding or photo editing batches of large images you should be fine with just the 16gb.
Get it, run a memory intensive benchmark in case you are worried.
fyi, the 1600mhz version is actually more expensive (US $95):

Cheapest 16GB 1600Mhz DDR3 in Aus is about $130:

Shame this deal isn't SODIMM :(
I had a a look around and this was the best I could find re: 16GB SODIMM
http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-Technology-1600MHz-KTA-MB1600…
:/
Huh? Your link is cheaper? But slower I suppose.
I don't know what speeds Macs run at these days but their memory/FSB is often very conservative so your linked ones might be fast enough anyway.
It's laptop RAM.
Yeah I know. My point was comparing price the sodimm is cheaper… so I don't get why he's disappointed.
thanks for the link. strange that this deal appeared right after i was searching for RAM upgrades in the last two days. nice :) i have a pavilion 20-b021a (i won't brag, lol). i'm looking for compatible upgrades (2 x 8gb, i.e. 16gb 2-bank kit), and i believe the product in your link is suitable. i've found a few other options, but i can't see the difference in the two crucial products…
1: http://www.amazon.com/Crucial-DDR3-1600-PC3-12800-CT2KIT1024… and 2: http://www.amazon.com/Crucial-DDR3L-1600-PC3-12800-CT2K8G3S1…
any chance of explaining the differences to me, please? i'm just starting to learn about this stuff. by the way, i'm leaning towards crucial because that's what the HP website recommends; they provided a link (as well as the ballistix sport, but both 16gb kits are sold out there, so i have no choice but to buy from amazon). the first link i provided matches the appearance of the one on crucial's website (including specs). or, should i just go for the kingston, and will it be suitable for my computer?
any help would be appreciated.
P.S. here is the link to crucial's website: http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/compatible-upgrade-for/HP-Comp…
Hmm… decisions, decisions. Would be a nice upgrade to my 2011 machine, but I want to go Skylake next year and that'll be DDR4…
Don't do it, it would be a waste of $$$
On the other hand, it's only ~$100 for at least a year of use (especially if Skylake is delayed or I change my mind), and will probably resell for a good chunk of that.
Hard decision…
I guess it depends what you have, what you expect will use up the RAM. I have 8GB and until Witcher 3, my system never complained. If I shut down background applications, it doesn't complain so it is borderline.
Or DDR3L apparently depending on the MB. Just not plain DDR3 from what I have been able to gather.
Plus skylake is meant to be august onwards at the moment, would definitely hold back.
big speed up grade from my 1333ghz 4x4 dim?
Not all that much - all the benchmarks show RAM speed having very little difference on actual performance.
go to bios and just overclock to 1600MHZ or even 1866, problem solved. for 1600MHZ very likely you dont have to change any other settings including voltage
thanks for both of your answers!!!
Great deal mate, I purchased this for $165 a week ago from Umart :(
If you are not hung up on the brand
Newegg Australia have

for $128 and comes with local warranty.
but you would need to hunt down a free shipping code.
Does anyone know what CAS these suckers will do when set to 1600Mhz. Apparently they can do from 10 @ 1866 down to as good as 6. But I cant seem to find out how low it is at 1600Mhz.
looks like the price lowered slightly? appears to be $85.99 now
Fantastic Price, but ShoppingExpress's deal was better if you wanted something of $70+ value in the Trifecta categories B&C.
Can this RAM be used on HP Proliant Microserver Gen8?
Damn youuu! :) And also tipped me over buying the Samsung 850 because it was in the shopping cart from past procrastination on previous deal..!?!

LIQUID COOLER….
Cooler Master Seidon 120V - PC CPU Liquid Water Cooling System, All-In-One Kit with Compact 120mm Radiator and Fan.
This item has been reduced to $49.99 on Amazon.
This may not be too good a deal by its self, so not worth its own post due to postage, but if purchased with the ram the postage only goes up about 50cents making it $9 cheaper than the cheapest local one pick-up from Landmark Computers and about $20 cheaper than most delivered according to shop bot.
http://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Seidon-120V-All-/dp/B00F…
Over now… back up to $104.81 US.
Also I found this little gem at http://www.overclockers.com/kingston-hyperx-fury-ddr3-1866-2… …
Overclocking
By doing nothing more than raising the voltage to 1.65 V, the Kingston HyperX Fury kit ran happily at 2200 MHz, it doesn’t get much easier than >that! It easily passed a run of HyperPi 32M at this setting… perhaps we have a DDR3-2200 MHz kit in disguise? Could be.
That was the 2*4gig kit though. I hope its the same.

Works out to about AUD$130 (direct conversion) vs $150ish locally
