Try Transcend or Kingston....

These are the best... I gues Corsair is good too. Check with the other members.

Get the ram that u already have
If it's a transcend, get transcend...

although it will be hard to find an identical stick if it's Hynix, but try to find an stick same as ur current one.....

if u purchased ram with any of ur friends, i mean u 2 purchased ram together, and he has the other identical 256Mb in his comp... use that and get him another ram....

otherwise, I'll say corsair value select is still better than all that's available in india

zinon and hynix are much the same. stay away from these. my presonal choice wuld be coorasir, they are one of the leading ones or go for OCZ*. Choose ones with heat spreaders they culd be expensive but a real gud choice


*subject to availabilty in INDIA

I seriously disagree. i've been using a ZION ram for quite sumtime now and am really satisfied with its performance. After having warranty issues with Corsair, I tried ZION and am glad i did tat.

I would recommend to go for whichever brand u get. Reason: DDR1 is not easily available (especially DDR333 and lower). Corsair had stopped making these RAMs eons back and now finding even Kingston DDR400 256 MB is rare. So you will have to settle to other brands (I have DDR1 400 MHz RAMS 4x512MB size - 2 Corsair and 2 Transcend - I couldn't find Kingston DDR400 512 MB just few days back anywhere in Delhi).
I would recommend you to find DDR400 modules and use them instead of DDR333. Try anywhere, including online shops like ebay.in.

Good luck.
