Cruciual Vs NewEgg RAM?

[LacquerHead]

I was wondering what the quality and performance difference is between the Crucial 1GB 200-pin SODIMM, DDR2 PC2-5300 memory module, and the NewEgg G.SKILL 1GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300)? I know that Crucial is touted as the best, but the newegg memory sticks seem like a good deal. I have a T60 20074AU. Thanks.

is G.Skill a newegg brand? How do you know? I thought it belongs to a third company.

I did not know about that at all, I just saw it onsale through NewEgg.

G.Skill is nowhere near a newegg brand, though generally known for its high end desktop counterparts. It's fame has receeded a little since the glory days of LA/LE sticks using samsungs TCCD chips.
