    memory advice please :)

    need some 200fsb ram for my sn45g but don't want to spend a fortune atm...

    would you go for 2 of these:

    TwinMOS PC3200 DDR-DIMM 256MB w/Winbond
    - 32M*8/16chip, 184-P (for DDR-PC400MHz) 7
    stocked £28.20

    from komplett

    or these

    Geil Value 256MB DDR PC3200 400MHz + Alum. heat spreader - Stocked £27.03
    http://www.microdirect.co.uk/default2.asp

    from microdirect

    your thoughts?

    cheers all

    Go for the twinmoss, as winbond make good chips. Also people have had bad experiences with Geil.

    I can't say from personal experience, but the other thread about TwinMOS seems to highlight that nearly everybody thinks it's pretty good stuff!

    Most people seem to prefer the twinmoss>Geil.
    Also, I have heard of people having problems with Microdirect before (although when I ordered they were ok)

    I run 2x256 pc3200 twinmoss at 200fsb easily can do more but i don't need more for the time being . So i would go with the twinmoss better value for money.
