Corsair is supposed to be a good brand, viking is too. I got this info from the review on overclocking on this sites home page. Try looking there.

Micron has the best warranty in the business, I believe it's lifetime on both the PC100 and PC133.

Study the SDRAM Survey at www.bxboards.com (http://www.bxboards.com) .

I like to shop at www.pricewatch.com (http://www.pricewatch.com) . Talk to the vendor and make sure you are getting what you decide you want.

Corsair and Micron make excellent products, and you pay extra for their reputation and advertising.

Try some of the computer shops in the area. I deal with a shop that has quality generic memory and it has a lifetime guaranty. So far I haven't had any problems with any I have used. Luck to ya.

Heres how i think it goes
Corsair is THE KING. They are the brand to get if your wallet is to fat to fit in your back pocket. The most cost effective is Generic, I got some brand name 128mb(SIEMENS?) for less than generic prices on a sale...see what u can find!

thanks all, i decided to go with the Corsair, cause I will probably be doing some oc'ing and I don't wanna have to deal with any ****

any PC133 shouldnt give u any problems for OCIn up to 133
I got some PC 66 that hits 133 nicely at CAS3 (thats a real rarity) and another PC100 stick that does it too.
that was 40 bucks for the 64MB PC66 and 85 for the 128MB PC100
Corsair PC133 is about 2.5x times that of generic PC100
choose wisely

And search out www.pricewatch.com (http://www.pricewatch.com) for best RAM prices...relatively easy to use once u have decent knowledge of what all the terms (for example, DIMM, PC133, SDRAM) mean
