• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Hi all,

Just reading through about RAM and all the "what to buy threads".

A quick search at newegg for 1GB (2x512MB) PC4200 returns results for Corsair Value Select ($200), Kingston Hyper X ($280), and Corsair XMS2 ($380), with no real visible differences. CAS latency is reported as 4, 3-3-3-10 and 3-3-3-8, but I didn't find anything in the Memory FAQ about what that means.

What makes the HyperX and XMS more expensive?
