"Real" SAMSUNG DDR PC2700 RAM
I want to buy 512MB of Samsung-manufactured DDR PC2700 memory. Most places advertise Samsung "chips" or "chipset" but do not indicate who manufactured the circuit boards or actually "built" the module.
Does anyone know a reliable vendor where I can buy the "real deal," i.e., Samsung-MANUFACTURED memory modules?
Many thanks,
Scarlett

I have--and they don't! If you can provide a link to the 512MB Samsung DDR PC2700 RAM at newegg.com, I will try it again.
BTW, Newegg is one of the places that advertises "Samsung IC Chipset."
Thanks for the reply!

This is what strikes me as odd:
They list 512MB Samsung DDR PC2100 RAM, in-stock, $95, but they list 512MB Samsung DDR PC2700 RAM, out-of-stock, $78! Which seems to beg the question, when they get the PC2700 memory back in stock, will the price then jump to $95 or more?
Since my computer has a 400MHz FSB, it will run only at 266MHz, so PC2100 memory will work. However, it shipped from Dell with 128MB of Samsung PC2700 RAM, and I am trying to add identical memory.
I really like newegg.com. I like their merchandise, and I like their shipping--very efficient. I would like to do business with them, but I don't like "bait and switch" tactics, assuming that's what this is. I just went through that with Fry's, and I am still angry! :-)
If you know of any other vendors who might have this RAM in stock, please let me know.
Thanks again,
Scarlett

You could try www.computer-memory-store.com .
I was very happy with the customer service and quick delivery.
Added 256MB to Dell 8200 (Samsung), added 512MB to Another Dell 8200 (Samsung)
I did notice the 512MB price was up $20 since I ordered two weeks ago.
I hope they have what you need at a good price.
Best of Luck
