I purchased two sticks of Corsair Value Select SDRAM DDR400
PC 3200 to go on an ASUS A7ANX along with an AMD ATHLON XP 3000 CPU.
When you go to the Corsair website to use their system to select the compatible memory with your system they DO NOT recomend you Value Select (the cheapest memory they sale) but more expensive memory with fancy names.
Talking to Corsair Support they say that they do not guarantee the timings in the latency cass on the Value Select and when I asked whats the latency on the Value Select modules they gave me several different ones indicating that could be either one of them (such as 3-3-3-8 or 3-4-4-8 or 2.5-3-3-8 ).
How much different in performance and reliability is the cheaper memory versus the more expensive one?
