RAM hits $5 a Gigabyte!

Checking out the prices, I noticed two brands that have just hit below the $5 per Gigabyte price range.  Here I have the specs for two of them with differences highlighted in yellow:

  • Kingston HyperX Genesis 16GB (4x4GB) DDR3 1600MHz CL9 DIMMs, w/XMP (KHX1600C9D3K4/16GX)
  • G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series DDR3 1600MHz (PC3-12800) 16GB (4x4GB) Quad Channel Kit (F3-12800CL9Q-16GBXL)
