Is Adata going out of business soon or something? I was trying buy RAM from them but it seems I cant find the model I want and I kept hearing that they wont have it.

Bedazzled RAM isn't that cute. The year of the lets slap LED's on stuff and make it shiny continues.

Another company struggling to stay afloat in troubled times. But let's be fair. ADATA has made some pretty tough stuff in the past and what most memory companies won't tell you is they get all get most of their chips from the same place. So whether it's Kingston, Hynix, or Adata it really doesn't matter much now does it? ADATA made the right move going to 16Gb because we will be seeing a lot more of this thing in the future. The demand for "extensive" memory is on the upswing.

I couldn't help but think the word "medazolam" every time I wrote the product name

Isn't it supposed to default at 2,800MHz? (At least with XMP enabled.) Why running it at 2,666MHz and not mention 2,800?

Do you see where it says "Rated Data Rate Rated Timings"? Those results use the XMP settings for each module set.

Well I can't knock it. It seems like a cool idea as long as no performance is sacrificed for the sake of getting the RAM that has the cool LED on top.

I think the Corsair Vengeance LEDs look way better
