Setting up a new system with ddr 266 or 333 ram and have a choice of the
following makes, which would be the best quality?

Adtec - Corsair - DRAM Value - PNY

I had though Corsair because I haven't heard of the other brands before.
Thanks in advance for the feeback,

PT

The brands I'd go with are Corsair, Crucial, or Kingston.

From those choices, Corsair is the best.

I've used PNY, Corsair, and Crucial without problem.

Acknowledging that it is not in your list:


I exclusively use Crucial and check which serial number to get from
their website http://www.crucial.com. I'm currently running an ASUS
P4S800D-E DELUXE MB at the moment with Crucial and have two TYAN's MBs
with all Crucial in them that are rock-solid.

I've never had a problem using Crucial memory and the last thing I want
to deal with are potential errors from MB/RAM conflicts. Yes, I pay
more for RAM, but I have yet to have any issues, so I guess you can say
that I'm buying some insurance when I go with Crucial.

This is my experience...

I would like to tell you how much I appreciate your using Crucial. I work
at Micron which makes the Crucial product. My income is helped by your
buying our product. I work in a fab as an operator.

Keep making a solid product and I'll keep buying it! ;-)

Keep up the good work.

Of the 4 brands you listed I would go for the Corsair brand. I've
purchased them in the past and have never had a problem.

Good luck!
