Overview

The Corsair VS2GBKIT667D2 is a 2GB desktop memory kit consisting of two 1GB DDR2 modules rated at 667MHz (PC2-5300). Sold as a matched pair, this kit is designed to run in dual-channel mode on compatible motherboards, which provides a modest bandwidth improvement over running a single module. Corsair's Value Select line has long been known for offering dependable, tested memory at accessible price points, and this kit is no exception.

This memory is specifically designed for desktop PCs with standard DDR2 DIMM slots — it is not compatible with laptops (which use SO-DIMM form factors) or systems that require DDR3 or newer memory. Its primary use case today is upgrading or replacing memory in older desktops that are still in service for basic tasks, media playback, or legacy software. While 2GB is far below what modern operating systems and applications require, it can make a meaningful difference in a DDR2-era PC that is running with less memory installed.
