The acronym SFF stands for Small Form Factor (a.k.a mATX or just small computers. I my case, I just needed low profile ram to get behind my custom top mounted radiator.)

This is not a thread dedicated to all high overclocking DDR3 memory modules, although comparison results are certainly welcome.

If you read my original post I was just simply sharing news and spreading excitement for 30nm 1.35v memory that also just happens to be Ultra low profile ... and also just happens to be capable of hitting 2400 ...and also happens to be really affordable. It also just happens, that a particular member of this forum was able to take the ram up to 2504MHz on an x79 motherboard. Making it the "De Facto" king of DDR3 ram in terms of price : performance.
these kits are ok for daily rigs and such but there are much better options imho.

I picked up a 16GB kit of some GSkill RipjawZ with Hynix BFR modules for a bit over $130 shipped and they are rated at 2133 9-11-10-28 at 1.65v.

Do they cost more? Yes
Are the SFF? No

But they do have hs and it does fit under a number of coolers (Armageddon, silver arrow, venomous x) and they actually overclock much better than these samsung dimms. I feel there are much better options like the ones sergio and I have listed for just a bit more, plus I do feel they look a bit weird being naked
