    Shipping to US about $13.60. To buy a 4GBx2 kit it costs about $330 w/o shipping from Newegg and about $291 from MemoryC with shipping.

    Just thought I'd let you know! Even though the sticks are PC-5300 and DDR2, I figure at 8GB of RAM you won't need much else for now. As for me, I'm a PC-6400 guy but I'm not sure what kind of performance I'd lose from clocking down to a 667MHz?

    you wont be able to tell the difference between 800mhz and 667mhz ram....
    Very few people would require this amount- only useful for those running memory intensive programs.... but good find none the less!
