I know I don't have much room to talk but when I see news come in from this site all I can think of is that song by Too $hort "short and funky" happy smile

The new Viper Xtreme modules from Patriot aren't that bad.  Heck we reviewed a set of Division 2 Viper Xtreme modules not too long ago and enjoyed the performance.

We've just published a review on the Patriot Viper Xtreme DDR3-1600 Tri-Channel 6Gb Kit. These modules are XMP ready, rated to run at DDR3-1600 speeds (PC3-12800) with memory timings of 8-9-8-24. They come with some great looking heatspreaders that feature a copper core to provide improved cooling.

" ... I'm pretty happy with this set of ram.  Not only is it quite capable of running at it's advertised clock speed and timings (this isn't a given, I've bought ram kits that would not!), it stays nice and cool thanks to the Viper Xtreme heatspreaders and has some overclocking room as well."

The only downside to the modules is the heavy heatspreader for DDR3 modules that really don't get "hot"
