    fizzy make feel good..?

    RAM headaches aaaahhh please help would it be better to get
    8 gigs of PC6400 CAS 5-5-5-18 DHX or
    8 gigs of PC8500 CAS 5-5-5-15 EPP

    the system to be built is an oc'd q6600 on either a P5Q PRO or a GA-EP45C-DS3R (if i go for the 2nd i could get DDR3..but DDR3 isn't that good ive heard+its more expensive)
    this is my first system so i'm being a bit hesitant, triple checking and redoing calc's again and again..
    cheers and that

    depends on how high you want to push it.
    pc6400 will be fine for most overclocks on the q6600 because of it's lower starting fsb.
