    I didn't see this until I had already ordered the PQI package. I know OCZ is a great name in memory, but should there be anything to be concerned about with the PQI?

    I'll be installing it into my Asus V1S (at least one of the 2GB sticks with one of my existing 1GB until I can make the total transition to 64 bit Vista).

    Darn. My OCZ is on back order. Will they still honor the rebate if Fry's doesn't ship it out in time? The submission deadline is far too short...

    Ordered: 12/3 - monday (backordered, via email 12/5)
    Shipped: 12/7 - friday
    Received: 12/10 - monday

    As previously posted I received an email explaining the backorder and when the expected ship dates were. OCZ & Fry's came through on the estimated 12/7 date and shipped. I watched tracking from Friday until today, and it went through DHL and moved throughout the weekend.

    Overall I'm quite satisfied w/ Frys on this. Thanks to the quick movement I should have no problem on the rebate.

    Now for testing... :)
