    All of my machines already have 8GB of RAM. But I am tempted to buy this anyway, because I somehow feel like I would be losing money if I didn't jump on it.

    That's how ridiculous of a deal this is.

    Agreed, this is a very good deal. Just as a side note, these Corsair sticks are using the same Hynix IC's found in every other 8GB (2 x 4GB) kit of notebook DDR3 memory.
