Post by: Chanher on April 16, 2004, 04:39:30 PM

I've had bad luck with buying cheaper computer components, is there some tech companies known for high quality RAM?  tia

I'll put in a good word on Kingston RAM. They have a lifetime guarantee - not lifetime of the chip, but lifetime. I had a 512  go bad on me that I bought a year and a half ago and was bitching to a friend that I'd have to lay out another $100 and my machine was crawling. Two minutes later I was applying for an RMA and a few weeks later I had a brand new card.

Crucial, Corsair, Mushkin, Kingston(not value ram) are all excellent vendors

Mushkin is the absolute best, followed closely by Crucial.  You pay for it, though. ;)
