    Second Deal i think is most likely Microns (BUT only an assumption because they are Crucial sticks)

    i do not know if this is a deal for a single stick or dual sticks

    but here goes

    $97.25 description below

    The Crucial memory should be very good. One warning though: there's a pretty good chance the ICs are build with the new process, so they may not like voltage a lot but should still clock pretty decently.

    To be a professional noob/idiot
    * Default factory speed is for noobs.
    * Everything must go above the speed that the factory consider safe.
    * Everything for more performance
    * Everything fits, and everything can be broken.
    * Most problems can be fixed by adding a volt or two.
    * Post things in your signature that makes no sense at all.
