i've only built one system with crucial ram and have had 0 issues with it. the person who recommended crucial (back in the ay) swears by them. 2gb of crucial ram will cost me about $270...i've noticed 2gig ocz ram on newegg for $200. that's quite a difference. i'm not an overclocker...and i'm not sure that plays a part in making the decision, but is crucial worth the extra $70?

No, RAM is one of the last places you should go for the high end parts for A64 systems. OCZ is still a good name so i wouldnt' stress, just look for the budget ranges.

only pay premium if its the only way to get the overclock/fast timings. bang for buck it is not.
