Pros: Cool Look, One stick was good.

Cons: One Stick doesn't run at 1333-8-8-8-24-2T

In the Cons part of the review the set I bought had a bad stick bu the other was good, this ram seems...OK. the Speed shipped with them was 1600-9-9-9-24-2T but the failing stick will not run at 1333-8-8-8-24-2T. I think the Corsair Vengeance would have been a better choice this was G.Skill's reaction to that for people to use it on Sandy Bridge.

You need to update your review to reflect the PEBKAC.
If it works at it's rated speed of 1600MHz,then it's not bad. This is a low-voltage kit designated for SB. It will work fine on AMD CPU's but you will have to increase the voltage to around 1.5v.
It Doesn't the stick still fails at 1600-9-9-9-24 Voltage is 1.55v
