It works!
Good advice, product received quickly, and... it works. The swap space is no longer used. Response times have suffered as a result!

Not much to say about DDR3 arrays. No installation problems. They work.
Very good reception in the shop in Cormeilles en Parisis.
They give a new lease of life to my ancestor PC (which is approaching 10 years old)! Despite some rare XMP dropouts in the BIOS due to the age of the CM, they are running well at 1600Mhz.
The memory set is working properly.
Config : I5 4690K + CM MSI Z97 PC Mate + 2x4GB Gskill Ripjaw X + 2x 8GB Gskill Ares bought and installed recently, total 24GB.
Set to XMP in the BIOS, the memories run well at 1600MHz CAS 9/9:/9/24 like the 2x4GB Ripjaw.
I ordered it on Friday morning and it was delivered on Saturday lunchtime, thank you and congratulations for the fast delivery by Chronopost.
I'm very happy with the memory and the LDLC service.
This 2 x 8GB DDR3 kit was added to an old AMD Phenom based configuration that was choking on its original 4GB. Now that the swap file is not so much in demand, Cities Skyline and other games are playable again.
The heatsink doesn't stick out too much, which makes it possible to insert the sticks under my be quiet! Shadow Rock LP ventilator.
