Try these two brands:

http://www.crucial.com

http://www.mushkin.com

Hope this helps.

I'm new here, but the software forum doesn't seem to be the best place to look for hardware info

EDIT: re-read your post, looks like you found out for yourself However, I say Infineon all the way. Excellent overclocking abilities, a lot cheaper than mushkin.

I think Crucial is the best. You can't beat it

Sorry to transition your forum, but I had a ? about ram.
What's the big advantage of DDR ram over the standard pc133? Cause I am running a 1.6 gighrtz AMD XP chip and I have 512 mb of pc133 ram and my pc works just fine. Is the DDR ram that much faster? My mobo supports both but for cost expense I opted for the cheaper. Would it make that much of a difference?

Thanks
