I got two DDR 400 512mb kingston value ram.
One looks like its made from Infineon and the other is nanya.

The guy didnt tell me it was value ram till after i bought the thing so im thinking theyre trying to screw me.

What do u guys think Keep or take it back. They were 65 each.

$65 USD? If so, you sir, got royally screwed. Ultra Value RAM is $29.99 for 512MB on TigerDirect after rebate, for $65 for 512MB you can get better than my Crucial Ballistix (Very good RAM), yes, take it back and get yourself some Corsair XMS, Crucial Ballistix, or OCZ Gold.
