For me it would be Corsair and Mushkin, both make great memory. However Corsair have the edge in my opinion as their after care is amazing.
Best memory brand!?
- Thread starter DragonPC
- Start date
I've used corsair vengeance DDR3 and it won't overclock at all, I've used Kingston Value DDR2 and it's died in 6 months, I've used Kingston Hyper X DDR2 rated at 800 running at 1066 and it's as solid as a rock. As with nearly all things, you get what you pay for, but I'm a fan of the Hyper X range on both Ram and SSD.
In order of most used to least:
1.Mushkin
2.G.Skill
3.Kingston
4.Corsair
Since Corsair is usually the most expensive, the few times I've been shopping for memory, I usually couldn't afford the ones I wanted.
However, Corsair is going in my 2011 rig that I'm currently gathering parts for.

Yup, I agree with SieB. I'm replacing my Corsair RAM with some Mushkin Blackline as they look better imo and I need shorter RAM for when I replace my CM Hyper 212+ with the NH-D14 I bought from SieB.

i have corsair dominatorGT2100 and mushkin redline ridgebacks in both my rigs (seperately) - although kingston used to be my first choice
i changed to the above for better latencies
if you want large sets 16GB+ go with corsair
if you want 12GB or less go with mushkin

Only in the US?
Globally as far as I know. I'm in Canada and they did an exchange for me.

There is no best really. The above are just opinions.

So people aren't entitled to their own opinion?! after personal experience, I don't use Corsair stuff anymore.
At last someone with some rationality.
I'd have to agree with the majority on Corsair and Mushkin, just glad we can get Mushkin in the UK from Aria, i've never had G.Skill, it looks a bit tacky in my opinion.
I originally bought OCZ for my current system but it had a faulty dimm, which took my motherboard with it so I doubt i'll buy OCZ again.
