Corsair VS1GBKIT667D2 1GB Kit DDR2-667 PC2-5300
Strengths: Excellent value and great reliability.
Weakness: none
I've been using this memory for about two years and just bought another gig of it a few days ago. I've used many corsair products over the years and definitely trust the brand. Everyone keeps bringing up the issue of not over clocking but if you were planning on over clocking your memory, you would know to buy PC2-5400 memory instead of PC2-5300 memory. I have bought this memory more than once...

No Problems, Good Value
Strengths: Price
Weakness: Spotty compatibility
I've used the various Corsair ValueSelect modules for sometime now. With the desktop RAM, I've never had a problem until this set. One of the sticks gives memory errors on an Athlon X2 system (Dell C521). While this is the first problem I've had with ValueSelects on the desktop side, I had an issue with a pair of DDR2 SODIMMs for my laptop which makes me question Corsair's quality control on...

Nice entry-level RAM
Strengths: Price
Weakness: Packaging
This RAM is typical of Corsair's Value Select line. It performs as expected, but don't try overclocking it. The packaging is real weak so be sure to order it from a place with good shipping.

Fast and Reliable
Strengths: Really speedy
Weakness: Heat
After searching for best options in DDR667, I settled for the 5300 for my home PC. Works fantastic in the dual channel mode and have had no problem thus far (too early to say). I have not overclocked the PC so the heat problem is very much controlled with this RAM. However, I can understand the concerns for over-heating for people who like to overclock.

Good Ram
Strengths: Quality Ram for a good price.
Weakness: None really, they work.
I wasn't looking for anything extravagent. I just wanted what would work and run in dual channel mode. I have used ValueSelect rams before and they do quite well. Multitasking and startups are real fast and games like battlefield 2 and counterstrike run real smooth. Great value indeed.
