Brand is not so important-what's important is the memory chip its using. Even cheap kingston valueram will clock like crazy if its got a good chip like Micron D9GMH or D9GKX, possibly outspeed even performance ram which may use slower chips.
DDR3 is officially out, all the ram makers have already started shipping retail products.

To bad its like DDR2 all over again-DDR3 is vastly more expensive than DDR2, and due to the loosened timings performance can barely reach the equivalent of DDR2-667.
