My TwinMOS has been solid as a rock, and I'm also glad to see it's gotten plenty of favourable reviews recently. My favourite thing about it is the price though.

If Komplett has a Croatia site, you might wanna try there :) they have lots of European thingies.

Gah... dont get Geil. Im sure it CAN be good, but they dont reliably put out stable RAM. Ive got a stick and its far from perfect, yet ive heard of people buying the same RAM and overclocking it really well. Id say get Corsair or Crucial if you want reliability.

For around 50$ a stick, you can get the twinmos (get the winbond chips) from here <http://www.memoryx.com/>

I have yet to see any better memory for the nf2 boards, and it's cheap. Hard to find in USA though. Running at 200 fsb, fast timings, no probs.

hehehe..i need it here in Europe and i think i'll have to do really really long search if i wanna anything good.
first thing they offerend was no-name ddr...which i refused without thinking.....only name they have is kingmax. so i am up for long search if i wanna Crucial or Corsair.

i'll rather pay 50-100% more so i dun have trouble with my come then going for low quality memory.....

is there any brand...let's say....middle class, worth of buying?


EDIT:: did some digging, looke like there is twinMOS memory for really good price :)....and Bartons 2500+ not to expansive :)


wish me luck:)
