just got a stick of KINGSTON VALUE DDR. shows made in USA but no manufacturer company name on the memory chips. and it is also SINGLE-SIDED as opposed to my other stick of DDR which has memory chips on both sides.

is this stick good for some OCing? or should i go and exchange for another stick for another chip manufacturer?

all comments appreciated

The only way to find out is to try it. Both of my sticks of 256MB Crucial have chips on only one side so I don't that's necessarily and indicator of low quality.

It just means that it uses denser chips. Shouldn't neccesarily mean thats its any better or worse than a double-sided one.

but i also do not see any chip manufacturer name on the stick. does anyone had experience with this kind of kingston stick?

and where can i find some simple programs that i can use to test the memory?
