They look like good prices to me. I wonder if I should replace my 1GB of Corsair XMS with 2GB...

Good question. How much general improvment in perf do you get when you go from 1 to 2 gig. My guess is a more std user , not much. MAybe it helps some games or big video editing apps. Specially when you are hunting down that last <15%. I don't know that I would suggest most generic home users upgrade beyond 512 even. Of course 128 and 256meg users going to 512 is like getting a brand new PC. Anyone agree or disagree?

In a word: Yes.

I don't know how I lived without 2gb of RAM before. I upgraded strictly for Battlefield 2, and I was amazed when I could alt-tab out of any program and not have a moment's stutter. But then again, I'm an avid gamer and experienced photoshop user....

OCZ?

The PC-4000 RAM is a good price, the rest are mediocre.

Remember folks: call Monarch before you order to make sure it is actually in stock. They don't update their site in real time and won't tell you its OOS till days after you order.
