This review is from: PNY OPTIMA 512MB DDR 333 MHz PC2700 Desktop DIMM Memory Module MD0512SD1-333 (Personal Computers)

Installed in about 10 minutes in my Dell Dimension 2400, and works great. Only had it in one day so far though. Computer recognized the memory immediately. No problems, and everything runs much faster with triple the RAM, as you might expect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Memory, May 2, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: PNY OPTIMA 512MB DDR 333 MHz PC2700 Desktop DIMM Memory Module MD0512SD1-333 (Personal Computers)

I started off with one stick of 512, and I eventually bought three more seeing how stable this memory was. I'm using this memory in an Asus P4C800 Deluxe motherboard, with a 3.2 P4. Since it's been installed, I have yet to crash. I was also able to remain stable while over-clocking my chip up to 3.89mhz.

Highly recommended.

This review is from: PNY OPTIMA 512MB DDR 333 MHz PC2700 Desktop DIMM Memory Module MD0512SD1-333 (Personal Computers)

I am comparing the PNY 512MB PC2700 module with the Crucial PC2100 256MB modules (x2).

In terms of performance, they're comparable. I recall PC2700 as not being much faster than PC2100, but the PNY RAM cannot tolerate aggressive memory timing or overclocking.
I had to use the Auto/SPD timing settings in order for it to run properly.

The RAM is very stable otherwise and since there is a lifetime warranty, you can't beat this package at the current price.

Crucial is the other major competitor and while their RAM can tolerate overclocking and aggressive timing, my experience is that they do not tolerate it for long and soon start to give PFN CORRUPT LIST, IRQL Less than or Equal, Page Fault in Non Paged Area, and other BSOD messages.

I ended up going with the PNY because it was about ten bux less than Crucial.
