Poll: POLL: Do you use name brand memory or generic?

[troubledshooter]

With memory prices falling, how many people still go the crucial/muskin/corsair route vs. the generic "hope this is the good stuff!" method?

 

[Rigoletto]

your poll is not done properly. I don't use crucial so I can't respond to the only option.

 

[ltk007]

I use Memman Infineon, so its in between brand name and generic.

 

[Crystal Bay]

No wonder your nick is troubledshooter.........

 

[John]

WTF is curcial? LMAO

I use Mosel Vitelic 7ns

 

[troubledshooter]

Name brand vs generic, so I can't make a poll, jsut answer the question

 

[Lvis]

Brand name ram is overrated. I've never used anything but the cheap stuff.

 

[Rigoletto]

I use Cube pc100 in one of my slots and even though it wasn't specified as CAS2 which sells at a small premium, it's always worked fine.
*what I mean to say is that brand name memory might go beyond bare minimum specs allowed.

 

[Adul]

one side poll. fix it. BUt i prefer name brand memory for my own system.

 

[Noriaki]

A little of each.
My RAM is rated to run at 2-2-2 100Mhz and I use it.
It's not a big brand tho

(I know my sig says it's Micron, it's not I'm just to lazy to change it)

 

[RGN]

Name-brand

 

[Dark4ng3l]

heh I got generic stuff but I regret it cas3 not stable over 115 mhz fsb

 

[PCAddict]

Crucial. But, I will wait until the poll is fixed before I actually vote.

 

[Trashman]

Name-Brand only

 

[Mule]

I have sticks of Micron and Toshiba running 2-2-2@100mhz

Would you consider these name brand or not?

 

[incallisto]

I use either Crucial by Micron, Spectek by Micron, or EMS. I prefer Crucial. That's what I currently use.

 

[Jumpem]

Brand name - Corsair Cas-2.

 

[abracadabra1]

both
stick of mushkin, stick of generic.
the generic is 7ns pc100 cas 2 sdram (it's good up to 142MHz)
the mushkin is pc133 cas3 sdram (it's good up to 150)

 

[compuwiz1]

I used to run mostly generic PC100, but with the newer processors ram that runs at 140MHz plus is required for extreme overclocking. I run Mosel pc133.

 

[John]

Steve, where did you get Mosel from? <evil grin>

 

[eyor]

I use kingmax. stable at cas2 150+ mhz!

 

[Cknyc]

I just buy the $hit with the micron chips on it.

 

[John]

<< I just buy the $hit with the micron chips on it. >>



Be careful of a 4 layer PCB

 

[Imported]

I use Memman Mosel PC133.
