Memory brands

Expand Post »
Hey,

Are any of the brands of memory considerably better than any of the others? Should I worry about that, or should I worry more about the actual memory I'm getting.

thanks.

Re: Memory brands

Some manufacturer's enjoy a better reputation than others, but it's like automobile manufacturer's, they all build a good car, but some build high performance cars as well. If you were going to be overclocking I would go with something like Crucial's Ballistix, this would be their high performance modules.

Another consideration would be if you have a motherboard that is capable of running in dual channel. If you are going to run modules in dual channel you will want to have matching modules for the best performance.

Re: Memory brands

pny, kingston, corsair, crucial, hp, dell, g.skill, samsung, and other known brands are great. never buy cheap @$$ ram, it will give you cheap @$$ performance and cheap @$$ quality lol
