I am using 1 x 2GB DDR2-800 Buffalo Select DIMM in my main system and 2 x 256MB DDR333 OCZ DIMMS with copper heatspreaders in my secondary system. I have been impressed with the performance of the BuffaloTech RAM and the proce I paid for it was amazing. My OCZ RAM is terrific and I have it running a stable overclock at 400MHz currently.
What brand RAM do you use? Do you swear by that company? What would it take to get you to switch to another brand?

I'm using 2pcs of DDR400 512MB in my current PC. 1 is Twinmos, another is Corsair. My laptop uses 2pcs of 512MB DDR2 533MHz Kingmax SODIMM. I'm an IT vendor. Hv me own company & sell on eBay as well. I've sold Kingston a lot. Hv used Apacer b4 long time ago. Now there's another brand fr Taiwan - Apogee ( chaintech ) which is not too bad as well. Hv never used Buffalo nor OCZ before though. Tested Samsung / Hynix on SODIMMs before also. I find Corsair is still a bit faster than Kingston on long DIMMs. Never tried Corsair SODIMMS though.

Kingston ValueRAM is can usually be had for a good deal and I have never had any Kingston RAM fail on go bad on me for any reason. I don't often benchmark RAM from different brands but with similar specs head to head so that I can compare variances in performance. I do know many people who swear by Corsair RAM. Most Corsair RAM has a reputation for overclocking well.
