Value DDR2; Corsair or OCZ?

[bluemax]

I have two choices for affordable DDR2 (2x512MB)

Corsair Value RAM or OCZ Value?

They both have lifetime warranties, but what about RMA processes, timings, quality, etc... I'll bet some of you memory experts know a thing or two I don't.

OCZ might get you better clocks, I'd get that

This'll be run at stock speeds - Dell doesn't do overclocking anyways.

I have a mobo with DDR and DDR2 slots. I'm still holding out until the faster and lower latency stuff is cheaper. Make sure you check the timings on the corsair and ocz site if possible.

Oh. Didn't know you had a Dell . Just get the cheapest one - memory timings don't do jack (on AMD they don't do much, not sure about the intel side though - even though I own a p4 I'm not up-to-date on the intel stuff)

Corsair,as Dells are picky and I KNIOW Corsair works.

Since they are both the same price just choose whichever has best timings.

 

[bluemax]

They're all CAS 4. Since Corsair has a vote for better compatibility with Dells, I'll likely go that route.

Corsair works great, i have it in my Dell 4700, i think the best price is $99 shipped 2 day Fedex at ZipZoomFly.com

::edit
Actually $94 shipped at Monarchcomputer.com

None of which ship to Canada, I'll bet.
