What Brand of Memory do you use?

***Veridian3*** · Nov 9, 2007, 09:15 AM

So, which is it and why?

jp306 · Nov 9, 2007, 09:36 AM

GSkill, because when I was looking for ram it had the best price/performance ratio and a lifetime warranty. In the past I've used Crucial, Geil and Corsair.

bug77 · Nov 9, 2007, 09:39 AM

Had GSkill, now I have PDP/Patriot. Why? It was the cheapest brand when I bought it, while still carrying a brand.

I use Corsair atm, why? I used to have a pair of Team Xtreeme but one module died so I picked up a pair of Corsair 800mhz 4-4-4-12 modules...

several brands of low price RAM, mainly Kingston's and various DRAM chips. and G.Skill brand for overclocking.

buy based on trust in the vendor and quality, compatibility design of the components used in product.

Corsair.. Very Stable and a Lifetime warrenty to.

I personally use Corsair, and occasionally I sell their Rendition stuff, but I usually sell Transcend, and Kingston.

The first modules in my system were OCZ, after a while I changed to Kingston HyperX. I bought them because of a good price/quality. And I like the heatspreader color

Chaos · Nov 9, 2007, 02:50 PM

Super Talent because of it's price and availability locally

Zelig · Nov 9, 2007, 03:33 PM

In my main desktop OCZ, they were cheapest for the speed/type I wanted.

Generally, I just buy whatever is cheapest at the speed I'm looking for.

big names cause of warranty... but say arent the chips manufactures at the same plants anyway

I've just been using Mushkin forever. One of those things where old habits die hard.

CDsDontBurn · Nov 9, 2007, 11:21 PM

DDR400 2x1Gb OCZ Platinum EL is what i got.

got it through Neon Cowboy a while back. this is my first OCZ kit....OCing sucks compared to my old Corsair sticks, but 2GB > 1GB any day

BlueMak · Nov 9, 2007, 11:35 PM

2GB TeamGroup Elite 800. It was the cheapest that it wasn't OEM or "value" and has great timings.
Also lifetime warranty.
Team Group Inc - Team Elite DDR2 800Mhz

RebeLone · Nov 10, 2007, 12:28 AM

2GB of OCZ Plat. Rev.2 @ 932MHz 4-4-4-15-2T 2.1v. I might push it further and see how far they go.

***temeteus82*** · Nov 10, 2007, 02:12 AM

current rig Kingston VauleRAM... It was cheap...

Mr cairo · Nov 10, 2007, 02:56 AM

corsair ram because not only is it superb performing ram but it sounds cool when you say it .... CorSairrrrrrrrrr

**ChaosMinionX** · Nov 10, 2007, 04:00 AM

Corsair Dominator - Because its the best ram on the market for OCing, and I can get the most reproducible results with it on any board. Has to be the highly binned Micron stuff, not the newer 8500C5D or 6400C4DF though.... 6400C3DF, 8888C4DF,etc etc

Coolest, and fastest memory I have ever used really.

And not to mention, the turn around time on RMA's I have had no problems, and the stuff is guaranteed for life. I have ripped through at least 4 kits of Dominators that have died for various reasons, and it was replaced no questions asked. Highly Recommend them

PS- If you have any problems with Corsair RAM, or the RMA let me know and I will put you in contact with someone that can help

riles9262 · Nov 10, 2007, 07:39 AM

Some kind of samsung pc3200 memory.

Tril · Nov 12, 2007, 01:10 AM

I'm currently using OCZ RAM. It was among the cheapest for the best performance I could find at the time of purchase. I had no problems so far with it.

I don't really have any brand preference. I'll usually base my purchases on price, performance, availability and reviews.

IamLakota · Nov 12, 2007, 04:39 AM

Corsair TwinX

dipstick · Nov 12, 2007, 10:35 AM

I've been sticking it out with Patriot ram since the athlon XP days. They offer just as good timings/oc'ing as the big boys and are far cheaper-usually with awesome rebates too. Support is great also

Erroneus · Nov 12, 2007, 04:21 PM

2 gigs of Mushkin PC2-9200 :P

Not pushing them 100% though, but got'em pretty cheap.

Da_Jewish_Fonzy · Nov 12, 2007, 06:34 PM

OCz Platinum, they don't overclock the greatest but they had the tightest timings around when I got them and a lifetime warranty.

Falstaff · Nov 13, 2007, 03:16 AM

Value Ram..

dogin · Nov 13, 2007, 02:55 PM

Corsair Dominator Twin2x2048-10000C5DF (two sets-4gigs for Vista 64 and Crysis) for OC'ing current Asus Maximus Formula board. Have always had good luck with Corsair in my gaming machines in getting great performance.
