Agree with Davet50.

Crucial is my first choice for any type of RAM in all my computers at home; Kingston my second.

I would suggest the Crucial ram as that is what is most recommended around here. They have a good reputation of having the most compatible ram for Dell systems

I have had any personal experience with OCZ RAM. However my coworkers & colleagues seem to prefer Crucial over OCZ. Only one guy I know likes his OCZ & he put it into a custum-built i7 machine. Everyone else has some vendor made unit: Dell, HP, or what have you.

Maybe there is something to be said there; perhaps OCZ doesn't like vendor machines? Not sure, just speculating. None-the-less I'd say go with Crucial or Kingston. Don't want you buying new RAM just to learn it doesn't work & have to return it.

Thanks for the replies, just one more question. I've read that this memory from OCZ (same specs as Crucial and Kingston) doesn't work with the optiplex. My concern is: Could Kingston and Crucial RAM doesn't work? My only option would be DELL... Thanks
