I have just today purchased some crucial memory for my system. Crucial are arguably one of the best manufacturers, check out their website (most expensive), then ebuyer (cheaper), and then check out ebay (cheapest). There are a few resellers on ebay and the memory will still come with the crucial warranty.

there are better memory the crucial,

OCZ, TIWNMOS. ETC
