If you type in <b>PC1066 256MB</b> at PriceWatch, you will see Kingston for $125. I can deal with that price. If you scroll to the bottom of that page, you will see Samsung for $178. :eek:  Then, just below it, it has Corsair for $210, but it's labeled as Samsung with heatspreader. :confused: Does Corsair make Samsung?
If you type in just <b>i850E</b>, you will see on the first page Corsair, (PC800), but labeled as Corsair memory.

Are we talking about 2 RDRAM makers or 3?

I recently read a DDR270, (or 333) review and Corsair was top dog on O/Cing, and Kingston was the lowest on the pole.

So, if it's the low priced Kingston and the mighty high Corsair to choose from, with boards like the GA-8IHXP that top out around 156MHz FSB, (or so I read from an owners post), is the high priced, highly overclockable Corsair needed?
Thanks folks :) 

Ps: Still would like any gripes or praises on any of the <b>i850E</b> boards.

The Kingston memory specs should allow it to run up to at least 150MHz bus "PC1200" memory speed.
