Corsair, G.Skill, and Kingston are some of the best-known brands of DRAM for gaming PCs, and over the years, these companies have shipped millions of memory kits. However, now that we're well into pits of hell (aka the RAMpocalpyse), everything these vendors offer is now exceptionally expensive.

But what about the lesser-known brands? Ever heard of Cusu, Gugda, or Juhor? No, me neither, but that's because these are manufactured in and for China. With the US, European, and other major markets dominated by the big brands, there's been no call for these manufacturers to seek customers elsewhere. Until now, that is.
