Your favourite memory

Tis has to be the worst poll subject since I know Driverheaven. And to prove that, try making a poll of how many people actually owned ALL the listed memory brands, to see how many people can actually vote objectively...
I can't vote on this one...

I've owned OCZ, Corsair, Kingston, Crucial, generic, and others. Plus you don't have to have owned them all to have an educated opinion.
I'm sure there are many people who have either owned or worked with, or known someone who has owned most of the brands.

here's a link to my mem timings on air! with no mods to my mobo... stable in windows... not sure about unreal...lol

2.5.3.3.6.1 not bad for pc3200 ram ... for the price!!!

I voted Kingston cause i like what they offer as far as normal usage is concerned. For overclocking id go for something else, but overclocking and benching to extremes is not something im big on from a firsthand perspective (its just too expensive).

Dont get me wrong i very much like the idea, but i wouldnt advocate a certain brand of ram becuase OPP and Macci are top on the ORB with it. Chances are my system would never get pushed that far.

Also Forgot BUFFALO

BUT

OCZ is the shiznit, awsome overclocker

NuTz · Oct 29, 2004, 05:41 PM

OCZ or Corsair

SimpleTech PC4000....it's fast, fast, and fast...

I notice not many people have Geil. I bought Geil because they looked nice, were priced well, and I got a good recomendation from friends that it is EXTREMELY stable.

but I see that most people dont use it. Is there something wrong with geil? Seems like it outperforms almost everything stock in benchmarks...just it doesnt OC quite as well as Corsair.

sadly I havent yet found a Comp. Shop that sells OCZ here in Holland.

there ye go: www.icomputers.nl bought my OCZ PC4000 there.

voted for OCZ as well, i've also had Corsair, Geil and Crucial but OCZ comes out on top imo.

I voted for Geil. I used to have cheap Kingmax RAM. When I upgraded I went to Geil. Mainly for the fact that I was overclocking and wanted greater performance out of my memory. After using Geil, I would never downgrade or change brands again. Great performance, great heat spreaders and reliable.

Pentium 4 2ghz @ 2.4ghz, 480mhz FSB, 2 X 256mb (PC3200) Geil RAM @ 400mhz each stick, Radeon 9600SE 128MB overclocked @ core 415mhz mem 350mhz, LG Supermulti DVD+/-RW Dual Layer, ASUS DVD-ROM, Seagate 40GB 7500rpm, Western Digital 40GB 7500rpm, Antec Trupower 430w.

Geminiwave · Nov 16, 2004, 11:31 PM

yeah I agree. I love my Geil ram. its a good little performer and I get awesome timings on it(2-2-2-2. but 2-2-2-11 is faster of course. for some sick reason. lol)

teamtt · Nov 17, 2004, 11:46 PM

Voted OCZ, and the reason why is becuase I recently switched over from Corsair to OCZ and I couldn't be happier. My Platinum OCZ memory overclocks like there is no tomorrow, and I don't experience the stability issues I have experienced with some other memories. Whatever voodoo there is that makes the OCZ modules perform so well under higher voltage loads....I Like!

OCZ rocks!
