Coarsair XMS2

OCZ

OR i can get the 2 gig stick versions of those, will it be better to get 4x1 or 2x2?

2x 2GB will see a bit more gain. But if the price difference is just ridiculous, then don't go for it.

Dude, get the hyperX<im only saying that cuz i have it>. Patriot also makes great memory.

And <i think> that 2x2 gb is better because it puts less stress on the mobo memory controller, and i think its also true ude see a performance gain

Corsair 99.9% of the time, never sells a dead stick.

I could say every RAM manufacturer I have it great!

Kingston, pqi, G Skills, DELL, A-Data... Get what I mean?

Yea i get what your saying but the big thing is timing in the different brands. does taht make a big difference with performance.

 

[oscaryu1]

Not really, unless you get a really crappy brand. I've heard that A-Data's timings can be slower than advertised, unless you tweak it.

Also, the cheaper the RAM, the cheaper the chips [on the RAM stick]. Cheaper = Horrible OCing. Good manufacturer + fair price = Good OCing.
