Buying Memory, Crucial @ $90 or OCSystem @ $74?

I am going to be building 2 identical computers for some family and friends. I plan to put PC 3200 memory in them. My question is: what do you think is a better deal, going with the 512 MB chip from crucial for $90 (definably quality) or getting $16 off by going with OCSystem for $74. Does anyone know if OCSystem is reliable? Also let it be noted that I plan to buy 6 of these chips so that?s a 16x5 = $80 saving if OCSystem ram is good enough. Thanks for any feedback on this issue.
 
OK, so OCSystem is no good. I just found out that Kingston RAM is the same price as Crucial. Which of these should i go with. Kingston VS Crucial. Let the opinions (hopefully based on facts) fly.
 
Kingston VS Crucial.

If they're the same price, flip a coin, they're both comparable high-quality sticks with lifetime warranties and neither would really command a price premium over the other if you decided to sell it later.
 
Crucial's PC3200 sticks have been overclocking to PC3500 and beyond. If these rigs are just for you parents, you can always get PC2700 Crucial for around $50 with the coupon code...
 
There is a coupon that gives you 25$ off 512 mb sticks with Crucial. Use that and it'l be cheaper with Crucial. You can use the code online with 3200, you probably have to call to use it.
