I have four of these 2GB sticks in a quad-core intel build, and so far I have been very impressed with the stability. I have had no random errors, no posting issues and no freeze-ups common with RAM.
The silver heatsinks are not the most elaborate out there, but in my white and silver htpc build they look very understated and smooth. More importantly, they seem to be doing a good job of dissipating heat!
Mushkin's silverline ram is their lower-end gamer RAM (NOT their budget line), and so I would not recommend this RAM for serious overclockers! That said, a mild overclock will be possible with this RAM, and once you find that sweet spot it WILL be stable.
Overall this is one of the better-priced DDR2 chips available on the new market today (as supposed to sometimes-volatile used RAM) and its stability and performance is well worth a look at. Some people have had issues contacting customer service for RMA processes, however when my PSU went bad, I had a replacement out in just over a week (definitely not bad by industry standards)!
I now own four sticks of mushkin RAM, an SSD and a PSU - I have had no issues whatsoever with their products and highly recommend them!
