G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1333, $64.99, Shell Shocker 1P-2:59P, PT

[Meghan54]

Newegg will be having a Shell Shocker on an 8GB set (2 x 4GB) of G.Skill DDR3 1333 memory. Normally $84.99, will be $64.99.

But it'll only be available at that price from 1P-2:59P PDT (4P-5:59P-EDT.)

Not too bad memory for $32.50/stick.

I don't think I can afford to sell my desktop now. These prices are insane.

If you are running Sandy bridge then the RAM speeds wont really matter that much for you...

Thanks, Meghan54.

Would this be good for a Bulldozer build?

I don't see why not. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulldozer_(processor)

Wikipedia states explicit DDR3-1600 support, so this should work without problems. It's 1.5V RAM, nothing exotic, it should really work well.

Thanks. Not sure if I want to bite on it or wait for a deal on DDR3-1600 or 1866 instead. Not sure how much of a benefit that might have for Bulldozer.

I've seen the DDR3-1600 Ripjaw X/Sniper for $75 before at newegg. Hey, even if the difference is negligible you can at least tell yourself it's faster.

For Bulldozer, wiki also states "Native DDR3-1866 Memory Support". Also quad channel support which would require 4 sticks me thinks.

Y'all are quite welcome.....hope everyone got what ya needed!

Bought two sets myself.
