Another price drop. Samsung 512ddr PC3200 For117.

They have a pretty good resellerratings score of 8.3 for the last 6 months. Their eBay feedback (ebay@knowledgemicro.com) is not the best though. 200 Neutral/Negative out of 5700 is more than one in 30 dissatisfied. Has anyone here done business with them before?
 
I believe the Samsung PC3200 does not overclock that well. I read on a British website that the PC2700 chips work well. I am not sure about the OC'ing on the PC2700's, yet you might find the Kingston pc2700 to be of value. I am not sure if Kingston uses Samsung Chips, but you can find them cheaper on Googlegear than the Samsungs.

I forgot which website I got this information off of. I would go with some Corsair when the prices drop a little more.

You are correct about Samsungs.
They were the sticks to get when PC2700 first appeared, but now other companies have quickly surpassed Samsung.
The current sticks that perform the best are those using Winbond BH-5 or BH-6 memory chips.
Both Corsair XMS 3000/3200/3500 and Twinmos PC3200 use those chips, and are the current chip to get.
