Cons: none
After scouring online sources for ram until my eyes blead, I remembered to check my friendly local Office Max. The Crucial ram I got at Office Max (at the same or better price as online) worked perfectly. Getting it w/o waiting for shipping was great, but also knowing I could deal w/a local store if I had a problem made all the difference.
I don't know everything about high-performance ram except for compatibility, but this 800mhz 6400 ram works with my 667 ram 5300 (2x512mb) just fine. No errors at all in the short test I ran so far. The computer recognised it flawlessly.
Just remember to upgrade chips in pairs to utilize the dual-channel feature. That makes this 2x1MB "kit" perfect for computers with 1GB (2x 512mb) already installed, because 3MB is all that 32-bit systems can recognise, afaik. Highly recommended. My unit is a basic Dell, at 3 years old, it's about the same performance as current mid-grade systems with this extra ram installed.
I never bought more ram ever before because it wasn't worth it vs upgrading the whole machine, this purchase is WELL worth it. (Add a flash USB thumbdrive for extra cache memory if you run Vista or W7, a simple and cheap "Memory Boost".
Thanks again Office Max!

You Get What You Pay For!
Pros: Dependability
I initially bought Kingston's ValueRAM because it was so cheap. Two weeks after the installation, the RAM became corrupted and ruined my hard drive (garbage in, garbage out). After many hours of IT support, I was able to install a new drive and recover most of my data. The IT guy recommended Crucial and, although it's more expensive, it's worth it. My ValueRAM ended up costing me a small fortune!
