What would you choose between KingMax Hardcore DDR500 and A-Data Vitesta DDR 500?
They`re cheaper(30$ cheaper) than corsair value select and i think they`re even better.

Well I am not sure about the A-data, but I have the kingmax hardcore, the timings at ddr 500 speeds are pretty lousy, and none of my intel chipset motherboards even support such lousy timings, keeping me from getting to ddr500 speeds. The timings at DDR500 are 3-5-5-10, but I can still get ddr 490 at 3-4-4-8, which is the slowest timings my boards allow.

The KingMax "Hardcore" modules are designed for high FSB operation, not necessarily low latency.
You may or may not be able to run fast timings with the KingMax DDR500 @ 400. :eek:
