The Samsung kit should be top on Value and Performance. It clocks to 2133 easy, for the same price as actual 'value' RAM.

Samsung all the way. It overclocks like no body's business. Sure it isn't the prettiest looking thing without a heat spreader, but for "value memory", you can't beat it.

Voting for the SAMSUNG 4GB 240-Pin DDR3 1600

With it's low price, low clearance, and high overclocking capability this makes it the best kit of DDR3 on the market IMHO. guitar.gif

Samsung for obvious reasons. Wish they included some heat sinks for an extra few dollars though.
