Hey guys, first time poster long time reader. First of all I would like to say thanks to the avid posters on this forum for all the insightful information. Now to my question. I'm currently going to build another system in the next month or so. I'm currently looking to buy "best bang for the buck" components. I've learned from my last build up 2 years ago, buying hot off the press products and paying big bucks is not the way to go. This is what i'm thinking of buying...
Pentium 4 2.4C GHz
ASUS P4C800-DLX
Western Digital 36GB S-ATA, 10K RPM
Thermaltake Xaser III V1000A (Black) w/ window
ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon 9700 Pro
Now I'm sort of stuck with picking memory. I understand having good memory is always important in building a good and stable system. But KingMax and Samsung ram is half the price than Corsair. I'm not a overclocker and if I plan on to it wouldn't be nothing huge. Like I said I want the best bang for the buck componets. I'm looking at 2 x 256MB Samsung right now or KingMax with upgradeabltiy to 1GB. I'm just wondeing what do you guys think? Maybe Kingston would be another option? But keep in mind "best bang for the buck".
Thanks for info in advance.
