fORC5,
I share your skepticism. I own 3 of those Ballistix 2GB kits. I have
seen issues with 2 of them. Nothing serious yet, just periods of odd
behavior. I have already rma'd one 1GB stick (2010). I will continue to
support Crucial for now, but I will NOT buy any more RAM in the
"Ballistix" series/brand.
Sadly, I have also given up on Mushkin product also! Way too many
conflicting choices.
Best,
Duncan

Happy New Year to all !
Been using crucial memory almost exclusively for many years, had a system come
back in would not post. Testing memory one at a time, posts with one and not
the other. FWIW tested in more then one MB.
RMA initiated, 1st for me and Crucial. FWIW DDR2 800 Ballistix 2 x 1gb kit.
Voltage properly set, Balliztix specs 2V even though runs fine in my main box
at 1.8.
Hope this is not a sign. I also use Corsair on occasion but was wondering about
the groups track record with memory ?
