Those cheap DDR4000 Memory Prices

P.T. Barnum was supposed to have said:

A sucker is born every minute

I'm not sure he did, but, I'm sure near the "sucker borderline". I see those great prices on "Dual Channel DDR 4000 Platinum Shielded 512mb CAS 2.5 memory, for only $ 66.00
shipped. No name, barely a warranty, but, very cheap. I've read the reviews on people who went for the deals, both on pricewatch.com, and, resellerrattings.com. Not very well at the latter, a bit better on the former, and, this is what keeps me from buying,...but,...
have any of you bought any of this cheap memory, and, felt you've got a bargain?

I firmly believe that you get what you pay for in many things.

I spent the extra coin and went with Kingston Hyper-X. For the extra $50 I spent on it over the noname stuff it's worth the security of not putting poop in an otherwise high quality system.

The hyper-x has cult following in the GH forum.
