    No bad value... but then not great either. could prolly get better bits for a little less money, and just overclock a little....
    why would you need 2700 ram with a 266 processor and a mtherboard without support for it...?

    hehe, actually the only problem i had with scan was when my psu was getting a bit smelly, even after a few weeks. I asked them about it and their reply was "let it burn in" i still get that funny smell every so often :worried: but other than that its all good :D
