[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 440135, member: 24160"] This is why I always recommend buying RAM that has the manufacturers name on it. There are only a handful of manufacturers. Crucial, Corsair, Kingston and a few others that manufacture all RAM. Everyone else is buying their RAM from these manufacturers and then put their own name on it or sell it as no name stuff because they buy from multiple manufacturers, whomever has the cheapest parts at the time. There is a reason why these sticks do not have the actual manufacturers name on them. For the most part, because they did not pass their testing. The sticks work, but not up to the more rigid standards of the manufacturer. These get sold to other companies for re-branding. As with any electronics - no matter what name is on the package - some non-working parts will get through. [/QUOTE]
