Is VisionTek Ram worth buying?

[djrabbit]

I want to get this kit of ram http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1636642&CatId=4534
I have never had VisionTek ram but they look like they got some good ram in my opinion or should I go with a different ram kit?

I'd suggest going for a RAM kit that's 1600@1.5V not 1.65V......

Agreed.

Maybe something like

Depends how well versed you are to handling the internal settings of the rig actually.... you could go for the 1.65V ones, but then, there a lot of other stuff that needs to be done in order to achieve the said speeds or else you end up with 1333MHz .... and feel pretty blue about that figure.

What are you using? If you're using AMD then a Dual Channel set is fine.
If you're using Intel than the Tri Channel Set @ 1.5 would be the way to go.... so it's pretty much the budget and the rig that count.
