Voted Corsair
would loved to have bought & voted for OCZ, since all the reviews i've read put them on top,
sadly I havent yet found a Comp. Shop that sells OCZ here in Holland.
But to be honest the CorsairMem I have now (Value Select 400DDR) is IMM, very good/fast considering its price (180 Euro for a Gig.) & performance.

Z! You missed
PQI
and
PDP SYSTEMS!
I own two sicks of this one not bad a gig for $160 shipped.... Some sites have goen it to 250mhz @ DDR 500 at insane timeings like 2-2-2-5 ..... Not to mention it's the beast ram I've owned thus far
that one and "micron" who crucial is a subsidary of but they use other companies chips like samsung. who is the best run of the mill adverage system ram maker of all time memory is super compatable. Works when many others don't.... crucial boards with micron chips make good over clockers but anymore not as impressive as the others...

Voted Kingston only because the kingston hyper x that I bought well over a year ago has been working great. Was the cheapest of pc 3500 cas 2 memory locally. So really a totally uniformed vote.

I have a gig of Corsair XMS 2700 CL2 and they wirk great for me. They are a little on the expensive side as I got mine around $230 US. I bought one of those PQI turbos before from newegg but i couldnt boot with it in. Maybe it was just a bad stick but if it had worked they would have gotten my vote b/c they were only $80 US and had 2-2-2-5 timings. My Corsair is only running at 2-3-3-6.

Me too Neon....
Hell yes....hehe I too was a lucky recent buyer of pdp systems ram for 156 shipped...(also because of those reviews...) anyways... I'm very happy....
However, I did note a few quirks, and of course this is more than likely my system, yet sisoft reports the ram will do cl2 up to something like 167mhz and cl2.5 @200 mhz now call me curious... but I unfortunately haven't gotten as tight of timings (2.3,3,3,6 @232mhz) , but still better than my kingstong pc4000 sticks (3447)
Now I'm sure it's my mobo as abit is known to have fucked up on the vdimm voltages

The best I've used so far is Mushkin, but I hear that PDP Patriot memory is highly underrated. Used to be like 75 bucks for:
...and now it's at 105 bucks on newegg

I voted Corsair as well, because that is what I am running, but if when I bought my Ram (about a year ago) I had done a little more reserch, I would have probably gotten OCZ.

Voted for Crucial (bought tons over the years for myself and many others). Micron doesn't sell memory modules directly - they would be Crucial to us consumers...
