Being such a highly specialized/focused company, G.Skill also gets to enjoy the benefit of binning the best DRAM chips to the point where they have a decent majority of the higher-quality Samsung dies wrapped up in many of their products.
#OWC MEMORY VS CRUCIAL SERIES#
G.Skill is the other “top dog” in the RAM market that offers an insane variety of memory kits up to, and including, 256GB 8-piece sets of their gaudy Trident Z Royal series with gold or silver finishes and crystalline RGB light bars. While G.Skill does have a handful of other products like a gaming mouse, some keyboards, a couple of headsets, some storage devices, and some power supplies, it’s primarily known for one thing: RAM. However, despite the reliability and quality of Corsair’s DDR4 products, they can’t quite claim the performance throne since they share it with another company…
#OWC MEMORY VS CRUCIAL PC#
Corsair has undoubtedly earned its reputation in the DIY PC building market, so much so that you’ll be hard-pressed to find much fault with anything in their lineup, let alone their RAM offerings. Further, Corsair’s LPX series of low-profile RAM is essentially the de facto choice for anyone building a small form factor (SFF) PC, as they’re typically the best performing DIMMs to opt for in compact cases that have limited clearance.
Now, concerning their RAM, all Corsair memory kits are covered by a lifetime limited warranty and are guaranteed to come in a size and speed suitable for any build from the most conservative entry-level systems, to the most overkill workstation powerhouses worth thousands of dollars. They’re very similar to the famous GPU manufacturer, EVGA, in that respect, on top of the fact that they’re also an American-based company. Corsair is probably one of the most renowned brands for everything from PC cases, power supplies, and peripherals, to CPU coolers, high-speed storage devices, and, most importantly for today, system memory! Not only does Corsair consistently offer some of the best build quality, performance, and variety on the market, they have stellar customer service and excellent warranties for every product they provide as well. Kicking things off, we have one of the world’s most premier PC hardware manufacturers: Corsair.
