Right here is an updated list of RAM for AMD motherboards Posted by Punisher on XS (mostly with some editions of my own). Original here
I've updated it with my personal buying guide what I would recommend remember. Also this is going to be quite specific to the UK. These are in Bold
Feel free to post some of your own opinions and I'll consider and put them in the 1st post if I like them
I have added some vendor links at the bottom as well: scroll down
TCCD, Micron and UCCC do not require many volts to get them going. Winbond UTT, BH-5 and CH-5 require more extreme volts to get them tight and high
I'm only going to do 1gb and 2gb sets
Here you are a list of most known RAMs with their specific CHIPs (continual update). Let's notice in particular Samsung TCCD and Winbond UTT chips, best ram chips in the market:

"+~300 Mhz" = for sure over 300 Mhz, except rarity.
"~-300 Mhz" = around 300 Mhz, largely under 300 Mhz.
"-300 Mhz" = under 300 Mhz of about 5*(2,)3,4,5(,6) Mhz except rarity.
With V-RAM ~2,85V and relaxed timings.

Winbond UTT vs TCCD (indicative comparison, not scientific):
* Low Timings 2-2-2-X:
Winbond UTT (260-265 Mhz 1T @ ~3,4V) > TCCD (235-240 Mhz 1T @ ~2,85V)
* Medium Timings 2,5-3-3-X:
TCCD (~300 Mhz 1T @ 2,85V) > Winbond UTT (263-268 Mhz 1T @ 3,4V)
* High Timings 3-4-4-X:
TCCD (+300 Mhz 1T/2T @ ~2,85V) > Winbond UTT (265-270 Mhz ~1T/2T @ 3,4V)
* Consumption (max = at which voltage they give their max):
TCCD: ~2,85V (max)
Winbond UTT: +3,4V (max unknown)

I've updated it with my personal buying guide what I would recommend remember. Also this is going to be quite specific to the UK. These are in Bold
Feel free to post some of your own opinions and I'll consider and put them in the 1st post if I like them
I have added some vendor links at the bottom as well: scroll down
TCCD, Micron and UCCC do not require many volts to get them going. Winbond UTT, BH-5 and CH-5 require more extreme volts to get them tight and high
I'm only going to do 1gb and 2gb sets
Here you are a list of most known RAMs with their specific CHIPs (continual update). Let's notice in particular Samsung TCCD and Winbond UTT chips, best ram chips in the market:

"+~300 Mhz" = for sure over 300 Mhz, except rarity.
"~-300 Mhz" = around 300 Mhz, largely under 300 Mhz.
"-300 Mhz" = under 300 Mhz of about 5*(2,)3,4,5(,6) Mhz except rarity.
With V-RAM ~2,85V and relaxed timings.

Winbond UTT vs TCCD (indicative comparison, not scientific):
* Low Timings 2-2-2-X:
Winbond UTT (260-265 Mhz 1T @ ~3,4V) > TCCD (235-240 Mhz 1T @ ~2,85V)
* Medium Timings 2,5-3-3-X:
TCCD (~300 Mhz 1T @ 2,85V) > Winbond UTT (263-268 Mhz 1T @ 3,4V)
* High Timings 3-4-4-X:
TCCD (+300 Mhz 1T/2T @ ~2,85V) > Winbond UTT (265-270 Mhz ~1T/2T @ 3,4V)
* Consumption (max = at which voltage they give their max):
TCCD: ~2,85V (max)
Winbond UTT: +3,4V (max unknown)
