garetheves Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Im buy my bro some RAM for xmas. Hes got an Athlon 64 3000 so i know he needs PC3200 DDR400 RAM. Found the following 2 and just wondering if anyone knew the difference between them because they appear to be the same/very similar but with quite a difference in price. 1. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_This_Week_Only_25.html#aMY_2d030_2dCR Its the Crucial 1GB DDR PC3200 CAS3 (CT12864Z40B) (MY-030-CR) about a 3rd of the way down. 2. http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/index.html?rb=13846959273&action=c2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=65719 Any help anyone can give would be much appreciated or if someone could recommend something else. Ive got a budget of approx £80 and would prefer 2 stick of 1Gig as opposed to 2x512Mb. Cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamanC Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Tis the same stuff chap OcUk have it on offer, maybe why its a tad cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garetheves Posted December 8, 2005 Author Share Posted December 8, 2005 thought it may be the same stuff but wasnt 100% sure. OcUK is cheaper for it even when its not on offer though. Oh well as long as its the same and will work in his comp ill get that then. CHeers buddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamanC Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Yeah OcUk sometime pull it out of the bag and are pritty good like that Crucial memory it quite good stuff too, what you have selected is probably one of the best budget RAM going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garetheves Posted December 8, 2005 Author Share Posted December 8, 2005 yeah i heard that Crucial were pretty good so focussed on them and did a bit of search. so many different types of RAM out the though, so many combinations its well confusing.

carl0s Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 I just buy any major-branded (as in the DRAM manufacturer, not the cardboard box manufacturer) RAM of sufficient capacity and performance. Never have seen the point in spending extra for heat spreaders or stickers or boxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
