Alternative to this ram?..

Hey guys, just querying some ram I may be buying.

Patriot Viper 2 Sector 5 4GB (2x2GB) PC3-12800C8 1600MHz Dual Channel Memory Kit

Would there be a better brand for around the same price?

It's to go with:

Asus M4A78LT-M 760G (Socket AM3) DDR3 Motherboard
AMD Phenom II X4 955

Thanks

Better brand?

Patriot are excellent.

If you want a bigger brand then this corsair kit is pretty much as good.

Consdering you said that Patriot are excellent, I'll stick with that.

I just wanted to be reassured.

Cheers man.

I noticed that you have the same board as me.
I am having some memory problems with mine, as you can see in my thread.

Are you going to add those 2x 2GB sticks to an existing 2x 2GB sticks, by any chance, fully populating the 4x slots?

If so, please let me know how it goes!?

As you can see from my thread, linked above, I can't seem to get mine to run with all 4x slots populated.

Cheers
