Corsair vs. OCZ

[yogiB]

In terms of reliability and stability, which memory is better:

1) This Corsair,

or

2) This OCZ ?

The timings seem to better in the OCZ. But would there be a perceivable difference with such games as BF2?

Also, in general, which company makes better memory?

Thanks for the input.

both are nice, umm OCZ will be a little better i think

save the money and get two of these. you'll get overclockability if you want it too

i have a stick that'll do 2.5-2-2 at stock speeds and voltage

So, the crucial's better than both OCZ and and Corsair even though it's not Ballistix?

yes, unless you don't plan to overclock. then i'd go with the ocz

Still haven't bought my RAM and my choices are still the same except for having added crucial to the list upon a previous recommendation.

So, if I do not plan to overclock (and I'm not planning to overclock ), is the OCZ still my best bet?

Just to be clear, I'm talking purely from a performance and reliability perspective and not the price.

In overclocking, I have had better luck with my OCZ listed in my sig, than I have with Corsair XM2 1000MHz PC8000UL modules. This has been the case now on two different model motherboards. In both cases the OCZ went higher, and ran with better timings and was just as stable.
