    Kingston lists their KVR1333D3S9/2G as compatible which is available at Newegg for $33.99.

    You won't notice any difference anyways in performance.

    It's paying more money just to say you have HyperX but without any benefit in performance

    Pretty much. You should just get two 2x4GB kits and get 16GB of ram.

    Yes but what about timings? Those are the fastest in the market as today with a 7-7-7-20 latency.

    Are they easy to install on a G73JW?

    Thanks

    Doesn't matter still. You can even look up reviews of ram with different latency with a i7. Why are you so desperate to burn cash?
