Thanks all. Some new beautiful (green PCB) stock JEDEC standard ram is the go, I reckon. My preferred companies are Crucial and Kingston, like porina mentioned. My current 2x 8GB heatsinkless sticks are from Kingston. I am actually a little surprised that enthusiast 'non-standard' gamer RAM has become the (overhwelmingly) dominant RAM selling, when I think about it. We don't see heatsinks on laptop RAM, as god intended. Over the past year or two I have been learning kdenlive. With current hobo-friendly prices, I have to get out of the video editing ghetto, and 64GB is my one-way ticket out of here. The last time I looked at 64GB RAM prices (some years ago) they sent me into Sticker Shock spasms, but now the situation is a lot different. Thank goodness for RAM oversupply. My 16GB did the job and satisfied me for years and years...until I started video editing. So this is long overdue. As boring as it might sound, this RAM upgrade is need-based, as opposed to Gear Lust-based (despite my username). Which is not to say I won't be smelling my RAM, fondling it lovingly and taking macro shots of it. Uhm, I might have said too much...
