Which of these Ram is best (and a little overclocking)

[johnnr892]

So, i think I'm going to sell my 1gb pc2700 so I can gather some money together to get a 1gb of pc3200 and hopefull only lose £10-20 in the process, so that i can overclock my 2600xp adn for upgradeability. Here are my choices, which is best (must run dual channel) and overclcok the best, not expectin anything really special:

Corsair

Kingston
http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/produ...duct_uid=49296

OCZ

Any suggestions appreciated.

Corsair, i heard their value range got good reputation, even for ocing.

[johnnr892]

Anybody had any experience with the overclocking of these particualar corsair chips and the others?

[Scarlet Infidel]

Does it have to be Ebuyer? These are much better, they are lower latency chips of better quality. From what i hear these are some of the best overclocking 'value ram' too. Also they are on offer at the moment so very cheap.

[johnnr892]

Thanks, I will take a look at them. What about Micro-direct, what kind of reputation od they have?

I wouldn't get the corsair stuff at CL3 but then if you aren't bothered about latencies it doesn't really matter. Infact all of those 3 have disgusting latencies. The geil value range is particulary cost effective.

I've shopped at microdirect before and they have been very swift in delivery and sorting out a problem i had with my address, never had to RMA anything though. Their delivery is cheaper than otherclockers.co.uk, which is the other main site i buy from.

[johnnr892]

ok, well i may get that then, anybody have any experiences with the overclcoking ability of Geil value, i hope they go above 215fsb?

[johnnr892]

Micro-direct doesn't look the best on hexus.net ratings, are there any other companies doing this product at the same price but more reputable?

I've been looking @ budget RAM recently (can't afford 2GB of TCCD) and the best I've come across is Samsung original with TCCC chips these should clock a bit, probably more than "value" options from big name comapanies ...

Most people seem to get at least 220mhz out of the TCCC @ 2.5,3,3,7/8 this isn't great, but when its about £25-30 per 512MB thats pretty good imo, and an absolute bargain for the people who claim to have got 250mhz+ from it.

Microdirect were the cheapest I found for Samsung original with TCCC (avoid the stuff with TCC4) but I bought some cheaper from the bay of fleas, won't say what I paid, but lets just say cheap

Value Ram Roundup from Anandtech, you must be very lucky ;

I just got the geil ram.

Great value with great latency.

That is the one to get my freind. I got it from microdirect and delivery was super fast.

Geil will do you well. Haven't had any problems with the 2*512MB sticks I installed in my s939 system, so I would recommend it.

[johnnr892]

yeah i went for the geil ,thanks guys for the helps, i was gonna spend £10 more on inferier ram, thanks again!!Hopefully it will arrive tomorrow and i will give you some results

[Scarlet Infidel]

No problem, i think i speak for everyone when i say we are happy to help (if not expect several advice bills by the end of the week). Good luck, i hope you get some good clocking sticks.

Which online stores sell the OCZ VX Gold i haven't seen any around the usual places i shop?

Does it have to be Ebuyer? These are much better, they are lower latency chips of better quality. From what i hear these are some of the best overclocking 'value ram' too. Also they are on offer at the moment so very cheap.

Wow these are a bargain Where's the catch
I'm tempted to sell my 2 x 512 pc2700 (dif makes) on ebay and then get some of these...!!??
