On system ones pretty any 5101 ram will work. It’s not picky at all. But the new Phillips PDC versions are definitely the best version by far in all regards

You can use any 5101 in a system1. Heck you can even run the darn thing with no ram! at least i think you can, going from memory. Maybe i'm thinking about the PROM chip (it will boot and run with no game PROM, just can't start a game.) I thought the same was true for RAM but now my memory is failing me....
I've seen a zillion system1 games over the years, and every darn one has a different brand of 5101 (so it seems). Personally i change them to the Phillips PCD5101, because as Andrew said, it's the best (and frankly cheap, about $1 each), and readily available.
