Unless it is a gaming machine, pc makers rarely use quality ram like corsair. Look in pretty much any HP or other name brand computer and you will see ram from no-name companies like Hyinx, Ramaxel, etc. That's just the way it is. You can always replace it with better, faster ram, but unless you are gaming there is no point. Just get good quality ram and you will be fine. The more the better too. Be careful of warranties too. Sometimes companies say the warranty is void if you switch out a factory part so if you do a ram upgrade and your computer dies, put the original ram back in before you take it in for service. And yeah, PC manufactures don't make ram. All they really do is put a computer together for you, make it look pretty, and put their own custom software on it.

Neither do the PC makers. They all buy RAM. Whatever computer you buy is going to come with third party RAM. If it has the computer company's logo on it, then you are paying extra to get the logo.

What you CAN do though, is to upgrade your RAM with quality RAMs like the Crucials: killer-dealz . com/crucial I upgraded my macbook to 4GB and it's NICE!!
