What does the voice of experience (you guys) say? Are they all pretty much the same, or is there a consensus favorite?

All the brands you mention there make good memory. For the setup you have, I would recommend getting the value line. (Corsair Value Select is my favorite, but any of these mfr's will have a value line) PC3200 is the way to go. The higher-speed rated memory and "low latency" memory is only for extreme overclocking applications. The basic PC3200 works fine for stock speeds/setups. Get the matched set so you can run in Dual Channel mode, it's a bit faster and the matched sets ususally don't cost any more.
