Getting 2 sets of one of these ram kits from the egg at the end of the week, problem is I don't know which will be best. I had my preference on the Gskills stuff as it is the cheapest and also has free shipping whereas the other two are $20 USD more each and I still have to pay shipping. So, G.Skills? Mushkin? or OCZ?
Before anyone asks, yes I do want 4GB for when I decide to run Vista. Yes I do only want 1GB sticks and yes I'm aware that DDR is a rip off, but I'm willing to pay, for various reasons. If there is 2x1GB kits of similarly priced (serious preference to not pay any more then the Mushkin or OCZ kits from Newegg) stuff that is as good or better then let me know, I do need it from the US though, as Canada complicates things too much for me.
Cheers.
Oh, and I'm not looking to overclock my ram, I'd prefer to leave it as is and concentrate on my CPU speeds. From what I can see I think the Mushkin has the best timings and it does have the lower latency, but is it really worth the extra cash?
Cheers again.
