Hi,
I'm after some memory. I've narrowed my choices down to the following:
- Corsair 2GB Kit (2x1GB) DDR2 800MHz PC2 6400 XMS2 Memory Non ECC Unbuffered CL5(5 5 5 12) - TWIN2X2048 6400
or
- OCZ 2GB Kit (2x1GB) DDR2 800MHz PC2 6400 CL 4 4 4 15 PLATINUM XTC - OCZ2P800R22GK
Both are exactly the same cost. I'm wondering what would be the best in terms of performance and reliability. I've used Corsair before with no problems but i've not really heard of OCZ. Are they any good as a brand, reliable/good warranty? I don't really game or OC. I've read on this site that the performance benefits of faster timings for everyday tasks is next to neglectable, therefore i'm tending towards the Corsair (i also use Crucial but they are significantly more expensive for the above specs, even their value RAM). What do you guys think?
Thanks for any input!
