    Best Mushkin RAM replacement.

    I have 1GB of Mushkin lvl2 BH5 thats screwed up so is getting RMA'd. As you know you can't get BH5 anymore so they have offered me alternatives:

    3200 lvl2 V2
    PC 4000
    3500 level I

    Since I've sold my PC off anyway it doesn't really matter to me which I get since it's just gonna be sold off. Whats the most likely to be the easiest to sell? I'm outta the loop now days and don't know whether people still buy Mushkin. Most places seemed to have stoped selling it

    I'm running 512mb (2x256) of Mushkin 3500 - think the one most likely to sell (depending where you sell it) is the 4000. Most people willing to pay a premium seem to swapping away from 3200/3500on. Personally I love this memory - really tight settings and good performance, just not enough of it thats all.

    3200 lvl2 V2 <- guessing this is samsung 4ns which does 2-2-2-5 at DDR400
    PC 4000 <- more limited hynix chips (gets on better with intel)
    3500 level I <- ch5.

    mushkin is expensive and doesnt market itself as well as corsair/ocz which is why you dont see it much over here.

    i'd go for the 3200 lvl2 if i was going to sell it.

    ^^ Wonders if jarvo read the question at all.....

    Go for the PC3200 lvl2 V2 matey, I believe they'll get the better timings, therefore will appeal more the AMD fans.

    Thanks for the recomendations guys, I'll go with the 3200, should be easy to sell plus it'll be easier to test to make sure it works.
