Default Where to buy best extra RAM?

Anyone have any quality sources online to buy ram? Or is going with APPLE's RAM the best route to take when upgrading? I'm running a G5 2.7 Dual, with 2G now and I was thinking of getting an extra 1-2 G's

Ramjet worked out fine for me. I asked around a bunch like you're doing and most of the qualified people I spoke to said they trusted Ramjet.

I got 2 gigs of Corsair ram off www.newegg.com for a very reasonable price, I highly recommend that website for just about anything.

Thanks everyone. I actually found the OWC, worked best for what I was looking for. Out of curiosity what kind of RAM are you guys all running? This will put me up to 4 Gigs which I assume will be good enough.... I hope!

I'm using Crucial in my PowerBook, Kingston Value RAM in the Mac mini.

4G is plenty - it's likely most of that won't be used, unless you load HUGE samples into something like Kontakt, GPO, Reason...

Got a 1GB stick from Crucial in the iMac and it's never missed a beat. They're really cheap as well.

Good Luck

I'll second that. Fast service, great prices on all things computer, including media.
