New computer + rebates

JooK · 12-26-2007, 04:00 AM

I'm buying http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820220144 - Patriot 2gb (2x1gb) Ram which comes with a 40 dollar rebate. I want to buy 2 of these kits, so I can total out to 4 gb of ram. However, I was wondering if they would add up to a total of $80 mail in rebate?

My quanitity level in my newegg cart is set at "2", except it still just says $40 Mail in Rebate.

Patriot ram has CAS 4 latency, while most or all other ram kits are Cas 5. If the patriot ram rebates stack up to $80, then overall, the ram will be like $74 for 4 gigs of CAS 4.

So, will buying 2 kits of Patriot ram ($40 mir each) allow their rebates to stack up to a total of $80?

From reading in the form, you can only ask for one every 21 after buying the product and reclaming it

Yeah, I just read that : /

My adobe didnt work untill I restart the computer...

Anyways, I guess I should just get Cas 5 latency ram for about the same price. Whatever.

i'm pretty sure you will never notice a difference in real-world or benchmarking

be careful of the desktop packages. although it may seem like a good deal, they definately short you in quality in an unsuspecting place
