Newegg Shellshocker: Crucial Ballistix LP 8GB 49.99

[2timer]

I don't know how this RAM stacks up against other low profile offerings, but that's a pretty good deal for the price:

I picked up two 16GB kits (2x8GB) of the Sport VLP sticks, and they are working nicely in my main system, though it took a few restarts before the settings worked (dunno why... same settings worked after not working). I got them for $154 (total price for 32GB) though, so this deal seems lukewarm to me.

Those 16GB kits (2x8GB) of the Sport VLP sticks were sweet.

that link now goes to Seagate 3TB Barracuda for $110 FS, which aint bad either - lol

The "normal" sport 32GB Kit is $280 now and will fit under any Heatsink I have, so thats a pretty good deal if you buy 4. ($200)

I paid $161 for my 32GB kits about 8 mo ago
Wish I had a shot at it like that again

Although I have ram for my current system, I needed a higher end kit for my nephew's build.

Local thread here

Quoted exactly from my FW post

I actually bought 2 low end motherboards just to get 2 sticks of the 8gb low profile ram.
I got the same ram as a kit for $76.49 (shellshocker+code) on 5/9 now $134. I think it was as low as $64, but those days are long gone. Comparison of the memory.

So I figure.

$68 BIOSTAR A960D+ AM3+ AMD 760G I have a CPU that I can stick in for a HTPC.
$90 BIOSTAR NM70I-847 Intel Celeron 847 1.1GHz 2C/2T
= $158
- $76.5
= $81.5 for the above motherboards.

If you figure $134 for the kit it's $24 for the above motherboards. That's a dozen per board.


I'll use lesser 2x4gb or 2x2gb kits in them since they're not going to be used for anything special. A HTPC and a low power drive server.

The ram is then going to my nephew's new high(er) end build.

I picked some up with a new build. Decent deal.
