Hi guys, in my current system ive got the GeIL, and it works fine, but im getting a new system. Should i buy some more GeIL or go for the Crucial stuff this time? I've heard good things about this ram, especially when overclocking. Is this true? Would it be better for me to get the Crucial this time?

I would vote crucial if only for their excellent RMA service should you need it. I have found my crucial to be better than the geil - i have both. The geil is now in my cupboard as spare ram.

I have had both of these kits, and the Crucial Ballistix is better, I found it gave a better OC of my processor, with tighter timings. :)
