Help with selection! Crucial or Corsair (PC2700)?

rishath

I have Gateway 7405GX notebook with one 512MB module. I am planning to upgrade to 1GB and I am really confused as to which memory to opt for. After some research I have narrowed down to the two.

CORSAIR ValueSelect 1GB 200-Pin DDR SO-DIMM DDR 333 (PC 2700) Notebook Memory - OEM

Crucial Technology 1GB 200-Pin DDR SO-DIMM DDR 333 (PC 2700) Notebook Memory - OEM

I know both Corsair and Crucial are really good in memory modules, but I need your opinion to make a good choice. What do you recommend?
Note: I won't be overclocking and the Corsair comes to around $92 and the Crucial is around $102.

I prefer corsair. they're both really good - it comes down to opinion at this stage.

Thank you for your opinion
What about others? what do you suggest?

I agree with prime, they are both very reputable manufacturers. Others to consider: OCZ (although I'm not sure if they make laptop ram), Kingston, Muskin and G.Skill.

Since the Corsair is cheaper, go for it

Corsair 100% they provide awesome Notebook ram and Desktop ram!

I have crucial in my system and I love it. Both are great, so just go for which ever is cheaper. You wouldn't notice the difference between the two

Since you're not overclocking, the Corsair is cheaper, and they're both good, get the Corsair.
