    Thank you, Chaz. They would end up costing me the same though. Crucial offers free shipping. Newegg charges $5 for shipping + 115 = $120. I have to pay about $8 for CA sale tax with Crucial. I don't know if Newegg charges CA sale tax. If they don't, I will buy from them. If they do, I will from Crucial because I know Crucial memory is very reliable. Thanks again.

    Sadly, Newegg charges CA sales tax. :(
