All of these are plain PC3200, rated at 400MHz. No overclocking is due ATM; interested in a reliable memory performing as expected in stock settings...

Of those three... Running under default settings... My vote goes to Samsung

Yup Samsung silicon is tops. Isn't that all that Corsair uses in their modules?

Quite a bit of the time. Samsung's own RAM also tends to be top-notch--like Crucial--but they also know it, and tend to charge accordingly :).

Unless I missed something, it seems to me that it is more the chips that are used and the PCB than it is a particular "brand." I know that certain brands have reputations for quality and service that are well deserved. All three of those listed have that reputation. However, under each brand, it is the chip that counts eg TCCD, Winbond BH-5, CH-5, UTT, and on and on. IMO

I honestly think any of them would be fine for stock settings.

I like Kingston myself, but I've used Samsung with no prbs.

I have not used twinMOS.
