The Samsung chips in these modules...
Strengths: Extremely low latency, lifetime warranty, super cool looking packaging and LEDs
Weakness: Cost
The Samsung chips in these modules allow the absurdly low latencies (2-2-2-5) at 400Mhz. The dual channel matched modules were very easy to install in my Asus A8V Deluxe motherboard. The LEDs aren't very practical but they are super cool looking! However, if you're looking to cut costs, or don't have a clear-sided case, skip the LEDs and get the 3200XL modules, which have the same performance.

These modules are rated as PC3200...
Strengths: Extremely low latency, super fast, extremely stable.
Weakness: None.
These modules are rated as PC3200 modules, but perform more like PC4400 modules. I have 2 GB of these modules installed on an Asus P4C800-E Deluxe motherboard, with an Intel Pentium 4 3.4E GHz (Skt. 478) CPU. So far, these modules haven't even hiccupped. If you're looking for top-end performance memory, then look no further. These are the modules you want.

Corsair has made really good...
Strengths: Some of the best memory out there. Really solid memory.
Weakness: I've heard that there are compatibilty issues with the Neo2 Platinum boards with the 939 chipsets.
Corsair has made really good memory for a long time. This XMS memory performs really well and has a great track record from many people who use it. I recommend it.
