    the reason the ram I linked is interesting is it is cas 7 at 1600.....so lower for 1333 I'd guess

    Like 6 or 5, so very low for 1333.....the kind that gets peoples attention :)

    It's exactly the same as the ram you have right now. For the Kingston memory if the model ends with a "X" it will require a XMP profile to achieve advertised speeds. The specs show "Features: XMP Ready". Meaning without that profile it will be exactly the same as the memory you have right now. If you look at the memory I bought and the screen shots I provided it shows CL7 at 1333.
