Canada Computers - Mushkin 2GB DDR2 SODIMM Memory (PC-5300) - $15.99 after MIR

[agent86]

Just found this on CC's site. This is a smokin' hot deal if there's a CC near you. I bought this for $27 after MIR about 6 months ago. MIR good til Boxing Day. RAM is so cheap these days.

Here's the linky:

That's a great deal. Has anybody had any experience with Mushkin rebates?

[agent86]

It takes a while to get, but I got mine after about 3 months.

Can it put on the MSI U90 netbook?

You can download free utilities that will scan your computer and tell you how much memory you have and what you can do to upgrade your memory.

Here's one site where you can download a utility-

Looking for some ram for my new x61s.... wish there was no rebate but good price, might have to jump on it!

This... actually is a pretty good MIR...

I read the fine print. MIR is paid in USD! so hopefully the USD doesn't tank before the cheques are cashed! =)

if you want to spend an extra 4 bucks, you can get low latency CL4 ram modules with the rebate as well:

Would the average user notice much difference with the low latency CL4 modules?

[mr_yellow]

probably not, difference is probably 1%-4% and only with memory intensive tasks... plus, you'd have to only run CL4 chips so you're basically dumping any preconfigured ram that came with the laptop...

It says one rebate per household, so that means I cannot get rebate for two sticks of ram?

Just make two separate transactions and get a "friend" to help.

[vincentfkc]

for the rebate, does it mean i could get two different models of memory for the same address?

caus i want to get 3 sticks:

one Mushkin Notebook 2G SO-DIMM 200-pin PC5300 DDR2-667 2048MB (5-5-5-15) (991559)

and two Mushkin Notebook 2GB SO-DIMM 200-Pin PC5300 DDR2-667 2048MB (4-4-4-12) (991618)

so when i fill the rebates, i could use my home address and info for one 991559 and 991618, then use my friend's home address and info for another one 991618

thanx

[hardywang]

The rebate form says to preregister on their website for faster processing.
mushkin.rebateaccess.com
I went to that site and I selected the memory I want with a quantity of two. It then showed that I would get a $20 rebate. So it looks like they might give you more than one rebate per household.

Restrictions
...
Only one rebate per qualifying purchase and limit one rebate per household.

so yes.
you'll need to borrow an extra address f/ someone else
