In search of the bestest, fastest, and most reliable RAM there is. I have no budget.

What's the best RAM that money can buy? I'm willing to pay whatever it takes, and just wanna know what the best RAM out there is.

I'm looking to get 2 Gigs put in. Which pairs are best? Twin sticks of 1GB or two pairs of 512MB?

Please point me in the right direction halflife2.netters. :)

BTW: Preferably Newegg. Thank you.

I like OCZ.
I like Corsair. But that doesn't answer my question.

^ registered ram isn't good for anything but servers, its actually a bit slower since it uses error correction.

ive been using crucial ram for the past 3 years and no problem. they have specialty high end ram called ballistik(sp) that was very high on the standards.

Munchkin(s) is another great that if heard of

I think I made my final choice. After reviewing many various types of RAM, I think I'll be getting these beauties...

Depends on what your motherboard can handle. I have 800 MHz RAM (OCZ), and my motherboard only runs it at 667 MHz.

It can handle it with full potential. No worries there.

If you can supply the volts, then the VX series is right up your alley.

I don't know too much about the el titaniums though.

These look good too. I wouldn't bother with 2 gigs though. Over 1 gig can actually slow your pc down.

Just some nice OCZ sticks, or anything TCCD really.
