The Pros:Safe bet for compatibility with almost all motherboards. Relatively affordable for 8GB of 1600MHz. Onboard heatsinks are a good deal for this price and add peace of mind if overclocking.
The Cons:Taller modules than standard Kingston RAM, may not fit under some cooling systems, or may be a difficult task installing.
