    There are some good deals on RAM at Fry's from a reputable manufacturer (Kingston), however nowhere does it say anything about a warranty. I thought that most RAM has a lifetime warranty attached to it, especially when you buy from someone like Kingston or Crucial. Do you guys think it's worth getting?

    what are those deals? all your saying is that you found good deals, and am not sure if it was a warranty, then asking us if you should get it. Whats the ram model number? price, how many GB, how many mhz, ect

    Frys says they have a 30 day satisfaction guarantee and almost all ram from reputable companies (Kingston, Crucial, OCZ...) have lifetime warranties.
