I should have these today and find out if they will work with a G33 chipset mb in a SFF.

Really too expensive but with only two ram slots options are limited.

Vista 64 is currently showing 38% usage at idle with 4G installed.

I'm glad that these are finally making it to market (even though they are incredibly overpriced). Wouldn't it have been MUCH MUCH cheaper to use a µATX motherboard with 4 DIMM slots?

Yes, I'm using a Shuttle SG33G5 with a G33 based mb. [FG33]

And I would have much MUCH preferred to have 4 dimm slots...agreed.

This was a flashback to the days of yore regarding pricing.

Pretty painful.

These sticks are currently running 1:1 at 400MHz with a Q6700 @3.2G.

Did a short run of memtest and no errors.
