Corsair for P5B Deluxe?

[camel99]

Hi

I have made up my mind and decided to get a P5B Deluxe, E6700, EVGA GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB but all I need now is to figure out what memory I should be putting in the P5B ???

I have looked at the corsair web site and they list the 2GB Corsair Twin2X 2048-6400C4 as being compatible. I cant get anywhere with the ASUS site to check the qualified hardware list!

Please, at the moment I cant choose between the Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2 Dominator PC2-6400C4 TwinX (2x1GB) and the 2GB Corsair Twin2X 2048-6400C4. Can someone shine some light to which will be the smarter choice?

Price is not an issue here, I am looking for the most reliable and best performer?

Thanks

bahh not corsair.
These crucial ballistix are so cheap (88.71 inc VAT) for 2gb...and they will run at 800mhz (pc2 6400) no problem.

In fact I've had them up to 1138mhz
