    Had a few of the 2700's and recently the 3200's in various system builds and no complaints - would def recommend them for mid-range memory.

    Thank you everyone for the very quick responses.

    I think I'll plump for the cheaper TwinMOS @ £110 for 1GB then instead of £171 and £186 respectively for Kingston and Corsair.

    Newbie PC builder here, so would you guys agree with this buying decision?


    Has anyone read this yet re: Premium memory performance over standard ones?

    It was a good read and sold me on getting cheaper memory, especially as I don't intend to overclock.

    Once, again thanks for your help.

    Chung,

    From memory thats the AMD64 Shuttle, Can I just point you to this thread for a read.

    I'm not saying don't get Twinmos memory, as I love the stuff myself, but I'm just giving you a bit of heads up on issues that appear on amd64 motherboards with 2 sticks of memory on a single channel motherboard.

    Which would be better on a ASUS A7N8X Deluxe - nForce2 MB.

    1 x 512MB PC3200 DDR 400MHz or 2 x 256MB PC3200 DDR 400MHz?

    Why?

    Just trying to learn a little more about how this all works together. Thanks

    in my experience: rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishe.

    myself and 3 other friends each ordered 1024mb (2*512mb) OF CL2 twinmos.

    2 of the chips (including mine) had to be RMAed following errors.

    thats 2/8= 25%.

    thats not good IMO.

    maybe we got unlucky but i would not order again.
