4GB of Good Overclocking Ram?

what multi and fsb are you running and i will tell you some settings to try ;)

Actually i ordered the cpu, MB, Cooler and Ram yesterday, so i've not actually got it all yet. I was going to get the E8400, but decided the E2200 would suffice for my gaming needs till they start using quad cores a little more. Looking to upgrade later in the year maybe, depends how this cpu performs i guess.
 
unless you are going above 400FSB then 6400, decent 6400 will be fine up to around 450FSB (my GeIL ULL 6400 Runs @ 4-4-4-12 @ around 900mhz).. anything over 450FSB you are best looking at 8500+
 
anyone know if they overclocks any good? 4GB OCZ DDR2 PC2-8000 ReaperX HPC (5-5-5-18) Dual Channel kit. Will it do 4-4-4 @ 460 or 500mhz?

what about the OCZ 4GB (2x2GB) PC2-6400C4 800MHz ReaperX HPC Enhanced Bandwidth Edition Dual Channel DDR2 (OCZ2RPX800EB4GK) will that overclock to 460 and keep timings of 4-4-3 or 4-4-4?

Both the OCZ kits have this heatsink:

my team ram i bought 1yr ago wont work with the additional 2gb team i just got, even tho they are exact same ram so sent it back for refund and will have to sell current 2gb team 6400 and get a 4gb kit of something.

Dont wanna spend over £120. looking for the ram to overclock nicely, i currently run my team @ 456 4-4-3-4 2.1v.

any suggestions?

Will the gskill run at lower timings than the rated 5-5-5 if i overclock it to 460mhz?

The OCZ reaperX 1000mhz is around £112, the ocz reaperx 800mhz is around £88 and the gskill 1000mhz around £94.

sulli, those would cost me £160 tho! would like a 4gb kit too really as they are guaranteed to work together unlike seperate 2 * 2gb kits.
 
dont think about going for the reaper X, there only good if your thinking about not upgradeing in the future to more of the same stuff..

4 of those sticks wont fit in 4 dimslots becuse the spreaders will block each other.
 
but we arent going to need over 4gb any time soon virus2k. ive decided to go for the pc6400 reaperx, read lots of great reviews:) they do 420-480 @ 4-4-3 and 560-580 @ 5-5-5-18. Just wish they were a little bit cheaper, only ocuk do these 4-4-3 reaperx pc6400 unfort as they are pretty new.
