Hello, I need to upgrade the memory in my MacBook and was wondering if anyone has had experience with “Knight” brand memory. I have located some brand new, but haven’t heard of them myself and wanted to get and Idea before purchasing them. Any help would be greatly appreciated. You can contact me direct if you wish at prim88@comcast.net

I and also my pals ended up taking note of the good items located on your website while quickly I got a horrible feeling I never expressed respect to you for those tips. All of the people ended up totally joyful to learn them and have in effect definitely been enjoying them. I appreciate you for turning out to be well kind and for settling on certain helpful tips most people are really desperate to be aware of. My sincere regret for not saying thanks to earlier.

Thanks for the message, Steve! We haven’t used Crucial much in the past, so I can’t speak with any first-hand knowledge about it.

I relize this is a rear old, but its my first time reading it. I thought it an excelent writeup. Tehre is so much hype over memory takign advantage of those who do not know better. ICoun’t help but notice you did not mention crucial.
working for a fiarly large cimoany, i’ve had the oprotunity to use several diffrent brans of memory, and settled on kingston and crucial for ther consistant quality.

I used to work for a local system builder and we most defiantly settled very quickly only utilizing only Micron original IC (Crucial Labeled) and Kingston memory. We meet OCZ at a trade show in Chicago. Initially, to get started OCZ gave us very steep discounts, but we came to similar conclusions about their organization as you did. I thought this was a very well done article.

very informative article. I’m considering a puget system right now. I’ve looked at a few different companies, and have been most impressed with what I’ve found.

interesting story.
and thanks for pointing it out.

i have been touting your work amoungst the photog sites whenever i see a post from a user about getting a new computer

nice that you try to keep it truthful which must be hard when marketing sells in the casual users eyes.

Unfortunately, a great deal of the computer industry is hype, flash, whiz, bnag! You’re exactly right though that memory has gone too far. Why we do not list faster memory is a mix of what we’ve found in testing, and the standards we hold — check out http://www.pugetsystems.com/blog/2008/10/12/overclocked-memory-is-a-scam/ for my full thoughts.

nice short story touching on why you use kingston.

i see many names out there some i have never heard of but seemed to jump on the i7 platform loudly.

one trip to the ausus mobo forum will give users ahint of what is working and what isn’t.

i don’t see kingston mentioned there much except in their higher rated speeds for i7 which you folks don’t list onn your website? is that by choice or something you found in testing?

to my eyes reading articles from tom’s hardware and elsewhere it seems the memory people use the hype,flash,whiz,bang method of selling a bit more than other ends of the computer industry.
