    Not another RAM thread..

    There are just way too many ram chips to go for I'm lost!

    I originally planned for geil ultra 6400 2gb, but found out they increased the price so much it no longer becomes as competitive!

    I just basically wants a nice 2gb 800mhz pc6400 kit.
    I will be running my fsb @ 400mhz max, so a pc6400 is ideal as I don't plan to go over 400mhz fsb.

    I plan not to spend over £70 and I'd love it to be around the 60£ mark or less!

    Also are there any chips that will run 4,4,4,12 @ 1.8volts? most chips require an overclock?
    Or shall I just get a slack 5,5,5,15 chip and run it at 1.8v?
    Should be cheaper, and I doubt the 4,4,4,12 timings will count for much in real time application.

    Help a poor soul!

    Get the 4-4-4 Corsair 5400 kit. Will clock to 800mhz and beyond easily if needed and is £50.

    The Crucial Ballistix PC-5300 kit overclocks extremely well. Not unheard of for them to hit 1000Mhz
