I looking at getting 2 sticks of 1G memory for an A8N-SLI. Generally
speaking, are Micron/Samsung modules considered cheap, or of inferior
quality? I know that there are more expensive, highly regarded modules,
but I was wondering if there was any reason to avoid these two
manufacturers. TIA

Micron/Crucial is a preferred brand here. No hassle return and
lifetime guarantee, good web site, reasonable prices, and the only
brand that would work reliably in an old FIC 503+ mobo as well as a
finicky ECS k7s5a that I own.

Got Micron on this Asus A7N8 del ver2.0 running slightly overclocked without
any problems for the past 2 years.
Have Samsung on an older EPOX board and again slightly overclocked for the
past 4 years.

It's so much easier to suggest solutions when you don't know too much about
the problem

I use Micron/Crucial, Samsung, and Mushkin quite often.
Occasionally I use Corsair. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend any
of those four brands.
