Which RAM is better quality?

SYNCH or Infineon?

What type of ram are you looking at as well as apllication? DDR, DDR2? The brand names there sound a little too generic or simply low end.

In other words you have an old system that runs PC133 memory? One page for Infineon memory can be seen at http://www.infineon.com/cgi-bin/ifx/portal/ep/channelView.do?channelId=-64297&channelPage=%2Fep%2Fchannel%2FproductOvervie w.jsp&pageTypeId=17099 That's a more familiar brand name.

Is this for a desktop or older model laptop? For notebook/laptop memory Synch is found at http://cybercypher.com/Buy_Computer/...aptops_8.shtml For a desktop you would have to search EBay for that brand.

If you are simply looking to replace PC133 memory you can look over some better more familiar brands seen at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...ubCategory=147

I've actually heard of Infineon, but it's not always the brand that you should look at. I've seen some rather crappy "top name" brands

You couldn't be talking about... PNY could you?

pony? egads! not that stuff!

Its for a desktop computer, and you see I basically don't know anything about RAM so I wanted to know your opinion which is better.

The Infinity is a known name where the other is an "unknown". I don't believe either one of those will really compete with the Kingston, Crucial, Viking, Mushkin, and other brands seen at the link provided earlier. If you have the option to go with a brand seen there at least you going with a brand familiar to most here. I would have to lean towards Infineon over Synch simply for the unfamiliarity with it.

I've never heard of SYNCH RAM. Infineon, however I have heard of. Just going by that, I would say Infineon is better.

The name sounds like an odd generic brand. It may have been simply one no longer in business explaining the unfamiliarity to it. But I don't think you find that is a brand but type of memory. PC100 SDRAM SYNCH MEMORY is seen at http://www.become.com/shop?q=ibm+syn...h+sdram+memory
