Experience with Offtek branded Memory

[egrath]

Hi,
i just picked up a Quadra 650 locally which is missing all of it's RAM except for the soldered 4 MiB. As i don't have any 72 Pin FPM SIMMs around, i think of buying "Offtek" branded ones which seem to be completely new sticks built out of new components. Has anyone already experience with those, especially if they work reliable. Their spec seems pretty common: 72 Pin, FPM, 32 MiB, Non-Parity, 60 ns.

Isn't that a little expensive? Or have I lost track?

Consider getting smaller simms, or only fitting two 32MB SIMMs. 128MB takes over a minute to do the memory test on startup. You're just sat there watching a blank screen.
