Hi all,
We have just published the second part of our *4GB DDR3 memory roundup*
- if you could post a link on your site that would be very much appreciated.

All in all, the Elixir is a unique, low power, low profile performance
solution but its pitiful 12 to 24 month warranty and inability to
overclock that far means the Corsair from Part One of this round up is a
better value product.
The Patriot Viper memory, on the other hand, is certainly great
performing and good looking, but the Viper heat "shields" are not
technically as excellent as other solutions. What's more, the higher
rated voltage means it struggles at the extreme fringes, unless that is,
you're really prepared to throw a lot of cool air and voltage into it
which is covered by a lifetime warranty anyway - the good thing is that
although its rated voltage is high, it boots at up to 1,600MHz with just
1.65V, meaning that it'll be fine in an X58-based system./*
*Cheers guys!
