Kingston sucks. Opps, can I say that? Anyway, I'd buy the crucial ram in the above banner ad. If you're worried about shipping, it's free right now. I'm running my crucial at 153 and it works PERFECT. Kingston ram is subpar compared to crucial. That's the ram they sell from bestbuy etc, cheap.

If you have to choose between the two, I don't think you want the ECC.

crucial = best, for workstation, gaming, performance, ect ect i recommend non-ecc
Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity.
