| So best buy is trying to sell this stuff?
 Kingston ValuRAM "dual channel kit" |  HyperX PC4000 |
I had heard earlier that Best buy is actually selling hyperX, but I didn't see any until recently over at the one I go to...
What I found funny though was that the HyperX PC4000's box says that it's supposed to be able to do CAS2, but on the bottom label, it reads to say it does CAS3.  -- Why I hate VIA |

The ValuRAM is basically considered to be cheaply made. You may get lucky, but oftentimes, its o/c potential is crap. 
HyperX is their "overclocking"-centric RAM product line, I think. Typically (from PC2700-3500 models), I've seen that they would have really tightly rated timings (like 2-2-2-5-1T), but seems like their PC3500+ rated RAM doesn't adhere to this  -- Why I hate VIA |
