I have geil in my PC currently, and it sucks >: and won't let me overclock worth crap. What is the best kind of 512MB ram that's under 120 bucks?

Kingston is the best, but they'll rip out your colon as payment.

Corsair is good, not too expensive either.

I have some geil and it works fine at the advertised speed. kingston is good corsair XMS is probaly better though. I would find out more information on your board though, and make sure you get something that is compatible, especially if you are using a dual channel board.

Please don't mention dual channel RAM. I start to cry whenever I think about how expensive it is. :(

My motherboard supports dual channel, but, alas, it was too much. I console myself with hyperthreading, though. :sniffle
