Best 2 gig memory

PucK · 1 Mar 2006 at 09:50

I’m running 144 opteron at 300fsb with a 166 divide.

At the moment ive got GeIL 1GB (2x512MB) PC4400 Ultra Platinum CAS3 (GL1G4400DC) (MY-027-GL)

But I need 2 gig. Shall I go for Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2-6400 TwinX (2x1GB) (MY-092-CS)

Or is there better out there, I would like to run the whole machine at 600 mhz

I’ve got around a £200 budget, how good is ddr2?

Cheers
Puck

You can't run DDR2 with an A64, Only DDR.

Not sure what the best would be, but some of the high grade sticks from Crucial

Crucial 2GB (2x1GB) DDR PC4000 Ballistix Dual Channel Kit (BL2KIT12864Z503) (MY-066-CR)

this do the job?

Sounds good to me. What's the price?

Corsair 2GB DDR XMS3500LL Pro TwinX (2x1GB) CAS2 (MY-093-CS)
looks better as ive heard bad things about Ballistix

ocz pc4000 eb's are the best in the business right now!

I can vouch for the corsair. Mine can do 236@2-3-2-5 2.8v, [email protected] 2.75v and more than 280 with loose timings (haven't experimented to much 1:1 as I am using a opty 144). I've so far not heard of either the OCZ or the Mushkin Redliners doing so well across the board.
