I have an asus motherboard and Geil memory. It works very well, though I'm pretty certain that I'm not getting the best out of it. Something about a divider or multiplier I'm not so sure... :confused:

I read all over the place you shouldn't use dividers with Intel

I recommend Corsair XMS2, I've been able to reach 3.33Ghz with this RAM on my E6600 (air cooling). Though I've knocked it down to 3.2Ghz just to be safe since I added a 7950GX2.

Why knock it down coz you have a GX2? I have the same spec and run @ 3.7.

Both excellent sets of ram mate. I run the HZ @475fsb stock volts 4-4-4-12
I'm sure the Geil would be just as good.

I would go Geil as from what people say their aftersales is fantastic if you get problems.

Geil seems most reccomended atm
