i'm going to be getting a new soyo dragon ultra K7VX4 motherboard. does anyone know of a reliable cheap place to get DDR memory. the board will take 3 gigs of 333. so i guess i will be in the market to pick up a 1 gig stick of pc3200 333 for now. but eventually i will fill all 3 slots with 1 gig sticks. i hate to wait for my pc to move so i want all the board can handle.

BTW i'm in the US.


thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

IF you get DDR memory, get Kingston or Consair. Kingston is suppose to be the best brand, don't get generic though unless you want headache because of automatic reboot or memory dumb.

Corsair is very good.I am not sure I would rate Kingston as high! Crucial.com is a very reliable source for memory.I would stay away from Tiger direct as they have very poor customer support.I have replaced ram purchased from Tiger that arrived D.O.A.,for 3 clients this past month! All were PNY brand.Tiger was impossible to get through to,so I had to send it back to PNY.Newegg,usually is very reliable.I order an average 3 times a week from them.

Really, I've never had any probs concerning tigerdirect. I've built around 5 pcs with parts puchased from there. I'll keep that in mind though.
