    Normally, the value select is smiliar to a basic model, it is not a high-end and cheaper. Look like OCZ Dual Channel DDR400, they have a value series and Premier, but value series doesn't come with a heat spreader.

    well.. its not the heatspreader... theres not one notebook dimm with one. AS far as using words like "high end" and "cheaper", we sort of assumed it was better and knew one was cheaper, lol. Do you have any idea what actual differences are?
