Why is it "yucky"?

 

I have had a lot of issues with it. I much preferred  http://www.corsair.com/en/vengeance-lp-memory-16gb-1866mhz-cl10-ddr3-cml16gx3m4a186610

 

I had 1 stick of 1866 hyperx that actually melted.

And 2 that didnt work at all.

Only one of them actually worked

 

I changed to some corsair vengeance and had a much better time :) all 4 sticks worked great.

Here is my build. It is kind of out dated, but it is still just fine for most games. I play TF2 and Battlefront at 60 FPS (with v-sync) and have no problems. It's even under $1500 so you would have room to buy different and better parts, mouse and keyboard, etc.
