Want a new cheap 1gig stick to replace poor performing Corsair Value Select.

Newman_SCO · 12-02-05, 09:18 AM

My previous super budget memory was very stable at 3.5ghz (2.8 northwood)

I bought Corsair Value Select 2x512mb (PC3200/DDR400) a few months ago. It is barely stable at 3.5Ghz and I am required to adjust default voltages of the cpu and the ram. So I just don't bother overclocking at the moment.

I would like 1X1gig stick at a cheap price that will out perform the Corsair Value Select. I understand the performance reductions from dual channel, but I am thinking about the future of my upgrades. Possibly 2X1gig in the future.

What do you recommend for a 1 gig stick at a resonable price? GBP (£60-70 is budget)

I have decided to go for 2X512 to keep the price down.

Adata quality good? I heard they are quite fast.

Deal:
