    I personally would prefer the Kingston Value.
    Both are great though.

    here are the price differences.. tell me if its worth it..

    samsung 2x512 $214 (non kit)
    kingston cas3 2x512 $265 (non kit but has lifetime warranty)

    i dunno.. $51 more for lifetime warranty worth it?

    Hardly.

    Based my preference on personal experience. Have some PC3200 KVR that are great overclockers. And i recall a few people findng BH-5 from KVR, which is purely luck as kingston would use samsung, infineon chips ..among others.

    Is the Samsung RAM Samsung Original? Pretty good stuff if it is. Get the Kingston ValueRAM no question if the Samsung is third party.
