OCZ Ram?

[Christopher]

My nephew has told me that they have had some problems with build
quality. Can anyone confirm deny it?

I have 3 sticks that run fine, but if I had to do it over I'd buy Mushkin.

Right thanks for that, I think I'll stick with crucial, as I can be
sure they will be good and rock solid.

Your better off with Corsair. Better quality.

How do they rate against ram purchased via crucial.com?

I'll be honest, last two systems I've built have had Kensington ValueRam in
them and they've run great. Never heard about any problems with OCZ though,
everyhing I've heard about them is that they're primo stuff.
If you're looking for perfomance go with OCZ, Mushkin, or Corsair, if you're
going for price or stability, just about any reputable company (Kingston,
Crucial, Viking, OCZ, Mushkin, Corsair) should be fine.

Thanks for that, since I posted it, Crucial keeps getting the thumbs
up for being rock solid, so I'll be sticking with them for my new
sys's PC3200 dimms.

I know that in the past, OCZ has been less than great. They've always seemed
to be the first one to break a new speed spec, but when Corsair, Mushkin,
or Crucial release it, you get better stuff.
