To each his (or her) own. At the time this thread was posted, the ram in question was considerably cheaper than crucial and worth consideration by people on this forum looking for cheap ram. I agree that crucial is now a "better buy" as it is within 10 bucks of this stuff. I posted as much back when this thread was new.
Still, the fact remains that this "generic" ram is priced lower than crucial, albeit not by much, and my experience (and apparently others) is that it runs stable at cas2 -- up to at least 144mhz in my case (I haven't tried it any higher) and apparently up to 150mhz in FRB's case. Some folks may value a $5 or $10 savings over name brand piece of mind, especially if buying in bulk. Personally, I would pay $10 more for crucial, but as for others...
