Samsung memory

I'm just thinking... I'm curious to find out which is better. I see Samsung PC2700 cas2.5 going fairly cheap, and I've heard that some are good, some aren't..

What is CB3 and DB3, or is that CTL & DTL? and What's the difference? which is better?

I've seen Samsung's DDR praised, and I've seen "Samsung doesn't work with my _____ mainboard."

Going by what is now two year old or longer history, Samsung's PC-133 was well thought of. I bought mebbe 4 sticks of it, with no complaints. Samsung chips on third's, at least Mushkin's own boards, worked very well.

Im very suspicous of that GeIL stuff myself (smacks of OCS to me)

Ive seen very favorable results from winbond chips (type B i think)

Im using Corshair PC-3200 cas 2.5, they also do cas 2 now, You cant go wrong with corshair.

Corsair's sticks have been said to be the best available, for years. Maybe its price premium isn't as steep as it was long ago.
