Difference between corsair and other brands

What is the difference between Corsair and Kingston and the other notably cheaper brands? I am guessing performance or longevity.

You are correct. The biggest difference is the overall quality of the memory. I would rank G.SKILL & Mushkin with Corsair as the top tier memory. Kingston, OCZ & Crucial are right behind them.

I would also add the level of technical and customer support available both before and after the purchase.
