    Black one is cheaper by around $2 :)

      Actually both red and white is cheaper at $67.85

        Nice find.

    1866 - great ram :)

    So glad RAM is dropping back down again.

    • String name on 25/02/2016 - 01:51

      Bought RAM before price increase, enduring BSOD and crashes till it drops again…

      • jztilly on 25/02/2016 - 06:20

        most ram modules have lifetime warranty. i had a couple sticks that were 4 years old go faulty, took them to MSY and they swapped them on the spot.

        (assuming your sticks have gone bad)

        • stonkered on 25/02/2016 - 16:00

          Haha, we didn't come down in the last shower! MSY swapping RAM on the spot after 4 years? True?

    • RI4V4N on 25/02/2016 - 06:46

      Is it?
      Isnt this just because it's ddr3, not 4.

      • nick nick on 25/02/2016 - 15:14

        Both are dropping

  • lancedefrance on 24/02/2016 - 22:24

    Can someone confirm if the 1866Mhz Ram is compatible with this motherboard?
    https://www.msi.com/product/motherboard/B85-G43-GAMING.html#…

    the motherboard has up to 1600Mhz listed but I assume the memory would just run at a slower speed. I would appreciate it if someone can confirm as I would rather buy 1866Mhz in case of an upgrade since I bought this Mobo for a short term build.

    • dreadpiratedan on 24/02/2016 - 22:38

      Hmm, back in the sandy bridge/ivy bridge era when I was researching alot of stuff for a build and I came across this same question more or less myself. Back then the answer was along the lines of: yes it can, it's just that it's technically overclocking to get it to run at that speed. However the ram is tested and guaranteed to run at those specs, so on the same note, you are overclocking nothing (no voltage increases etc). The motherboard just needs to think it is and then it's all hunky dory and will run at the spec speeds with no negative side effects for the ram or motherboard. I believe you had to manually set the ram frequency in your BIOS to get it to run at the full speeds BTW. Popping it in and changing nothing would work, but it would default to 1600 or whatever.

      As I said though, this is info from several years ago and my recollection may be sketchy.

    • donnot on 25/02/2016 - 02:33

      It'll be fully compatible. Will just run at 1600MHz rather than 1866.

      • lancedefrance on 25/02/2016 - 08:34

        Thanks I did more research after I posted and the consensus is that it will just run at lower speed.

          You can probably get better timings if you lower it, but the difference is very small

    I've been hammering most sites over the last couple of days… For serious notebook RAM
    Amazon is dicking me around, will not allow any delivery/pickup options. CamelX3 thinks Amazon don't have stock.

    Seems the promotion isn't all Kingston RAM.

    Kingston 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 2133MHz HyperX Impact SODIMM
    HX321LS11IB2K2/16

    Amazon: AUD$139.34 +Shipping
    NewEgg: AUD$131.66 + $AUD19.86 Shipping (AUD$151.51 Total)
    Local: AUD$155.00 Pickup

    NewEgg has something in it's favour with their Kingston HyperX RAM -> Free copy of Rainbow Six Siege (CD Key to onsell for $30+)

    Seems, if you're going to get stuff from the states -> Really gotta be after specific, locally price-gouged stuff… That's not rebated.

    • Raif on 24/02/2016 - 23:06

      Will Newegg honour the Rainbow Six promotion fi you are outside the US>?

      Not enough space, and the policy is to have at least the original currency in title.

      • sween64 on 24/02/2016 - 23:30
        +1

        For deals in other currencies, please include both the original currency and the $AU equivalent in the title via guidelines

        But yes limited space is annoying.

  • Dr PhilGood on 24/02/2016 - 23:48

    It's definitely worth upgrading to 2133mhz+ ram if you want to squeeze the last bit of performance from your old gaming rig. See here:

    http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2016-is-it-…

    • jabroni on 25/02/2016 - 00:30

      wait what? just putting in higher memory speeds increases frame rate or did they oc the chip so the bus matched the ram speed?

      otherwise does this mean oc by multiplier gives way less benefit than oc by bclk?

      • Dr PhilGood on 25/02/2016 - 09:53

        I'm pretty sure they just swapped out faster RAM. If you look at the graph, they compare 1600mhz RAM and 2133mhz RAM on both a stock and overclocked 2500k. In both instances, the faster RAM provides ~10% increased performance when the CPU is the bottleneck in games.

        As always, check your mobo for ram speed compatibility. I almost bought some 2400mhz before I confirmed that my z68 board only supports up to 2133mhz.

  • fatpizza on 25/02/2016 - 00:13

    I was worried for a second considering I payed $130 earlier this week for 16GB of Kingston Fury RAM. Then I realised this was DDR3 and I felt a bit better. :P

    I want this because it's white (like the rest of my components) and its a bargain. Despite the fact that I have perfectly good ram and I CANT EVEN SEE THE COLOUR OF IT ANYWAY due to my cpu cooler. Stupid eh? But.. bargain!

    Such small savings compared to local pricing… Not really a trigger to buy considering it won't noticeably make anyone's exiting 8gb PC faster.

  • educalifa on 25/02/2016 - 10:15

    Y NO DDR4??? <-insert meme here

    But what about credit transaction fees? If we calculate that in then the price is closer to $110. In which case this is pretty nearly 0 savings.

    MSY sells the blue ones in the 2x 8gb kit for $117.

    The blue ones at amazon total $108.65 AUD assuming there are no credit fees at all for the aud -> usd exchange.
    If we calculate in a modest 2% that jumps then to $111.50.

    A saving of a maximum of $7 and more realistic saving of about $3-$4 for a wait of around 2 weeks. Not really worth it unless you seriously don't value your time.

    • lolmao on 26/02/2016 - 10:09

      then use cash tho

  • scotty on 11/03/2016 - 10:15

    I just checked the price again, 16GB CL10 Black is now $61.99 + postage — around AUD$92 delivered.

  • scotty on 15/03/2016 - 09:35

    16GB CL14 2133MHz Black has just dropped to USD$64.99 + $5.26 postage = ~AUD $94 delivered.
