If you are big on big brand names, go for Intel. I like this battle between the chipmakers. Tom Nadeau Speed matters most to me.
Price is secondary.
I've finally learned my lesson re. I'm waiting for RAM prices to fall back to reasonable prices. Tom Strickland you can't go wrong with the Intel brand name. David Cole newest, fastest, biggest, and best. Colin Matlack look forward to the day when price gouging will be a thing of past.
