At the 1750Mhz maximum speed, I could run the modules at the same 8-8-8 latencies. This set of OCZ modules allowed me to go as tight as 7-7-7 at 1622MHz, so you can get a small bump in system feel and performance. The price point of $142, which these modules will be offered at, is higher than most of the currently available sets of i5/i7 P55 specific memory kits by between $15 and $35. This set of modules most likely won’t be for the enthusiast, but for the mainstream user looking for a step up from the 1333MHz kits on the market. There are kits with more overhead available for the enthusiast for a lower price, but when it comes down to no fuss overclocking of the memory, the XMP profiles prove beneficial and offer an increase in performance without the headaches.

Diggin' the black heatspreaders.

ugly white sticker taking away from the look. The latency looks pretty good though
How else are you supposed to identify it's specs?

RAM kits comes in a blaster packs which do not contain labels that show any specs of the ram.
Some of them have boxes… plus they could just fit a slip of paper in the blister pack
