I'd like to see a new poll, or at least a thorough investigation into how OCZ became ranked #2.

I never had problems with Corsair until I tried their DDR2 memory.
OTOH I had lots of problems with Kingston until I tried their DDR2 memory.

Until recently, people complained at how corsair made a 'switcheroo' on a crucial component for their DDR2 800 XMS overclocking memory line at least a year ago which really let a lot of people down. This in turn helped OCZ as they were the next choice in overclocking RAM.
 
Just to clarify, brands like mushkin, corsair, gskill, crucial, kingston etc just modify the RAMs right? Meaning they just add fanciful heatsinks and coolers, but they do not produce the RAM modules.
