Yes i know this subject has tons of good threads & info, but its too much & im in a creatine info OVERLOAD & am more confused after reading thru them!! My basic question is finding a single product & type of creatine to run & the one thing i keep seeing is running the good old Creatine Mono as its cheap & effective. So what about all these other creatine types that are out there & are any of them worth a try??? Besides creatine Mono, theres CEE, Kre-Alkalyn, Magnesium Creatine Chelate, German Creatine, Creatine Nitrate, Creatine effervescent, etc, etc.

I like capsules over bitter drinks & found a decently priced, dosed, & capped Creatine Mono here: Invalid Link Removed

So from my research, would adding the Magnesium Creatine Chelate be a plus in improving exercise performance & delay exhaustion?
 
The worthwhile ones:

Creatine monohydrate - it increases muscular PCr and thus strength and intracellular hydration. Tried and true
MCC- offers a different form of GI uptake to reduce GI issues and help creatine monohydrate non-responders. Provides chelated magnesium, the most bioavailable form of arguably the most important mineral to supplement with. SNS makes a 501 count bottle that's a killer deal
Orotine - provides orotic acid, which comes with a host of benefits (see writeup)
Creatine nitrate - enhances performance through 2 mechanisms, one of which is independent of PCr
 
I'd go with the ON mono powder. It's cheap and you can just throw it in with a shake. I don't mess with all those other gimicky types of creatine. I hear there's a new one coming out call "creatine-super-hydroawesome-asskickerdrate." Should be the bee's knees.

I really like mcc. I like the magnesium I can get from it with the addition of creatine.. I also like creatine monohydrate tried and true. SNS offers some of the most affordable and highest quality creatine out there.
 
I would say creatine monohydrate and I would recommend that you get creapure. Allmax is a great, cheap creapure.

exactly^^ creapure creatine monohydrate,inexpensive and in good bulk quantity and very very effective. Your best bet is Allmax or ON.

Also a creatine effervescent is worth looking at..consists of sodium,carbs and suger..to help with better absortion,in a few diff ways obviousley
 
I got 100 servings of creatine mono from nutraplanet for like 10 bucks. it mixes easy, has no taste, and does the trick
 
I'd say MCC, creatine orotate, or dicreatine malate (although dicreatine malate feedback is purely anecdotal, as far as I know). Creatine monohydrate works and I go back to it every once in awhile only to be reminded that it sometimes doesn't digest well for me, although dicreatine doesn't bother me.
