Hi everybody
This is the first 1333Mhz Ram that I found that is CL7 and not CL9 but I'm a little unsure about its compatibility with my uMBP 17.
Can you please advise?
Thank you.

Are you getting a better deal from Newegg than whatever OWC has on a table at the moment? They will tell you exactly what you could use with your version of MBP.
 
Well after some research I found out that the voltage for the hyperx 1.65v is higher than the 1.5v that Apple uses. So it seems that it's not compatible after all.... Too bad as it had the promise of being a faster RAM than the stock one.
