Hi guys and girls I am stumped on which DDR2 module I should buy. I've been looking at things like latency, speeds but all of which seem to be the same all thats different is the make and perhaps the heat spreaders. Currently I am willing to spend something in the area of £350 and am leaning towards either these, prices taken from OcUK of course ;)

Corsair Dominator 2x1GB PC8500 - £293.74
G.Skill 2x1GB PC8000 - £358.36
OCZ PC800 2x1GB XTC Series - £352.44

If anybody has any other recommendations please post. Too many makes, high prices = bad :(

The mobo this would go with is the ASUS WiFi P5W DH and the processor would be the E6600.

Never heard of Mushkin and Patriot lol :confused:

Many thanks, PiKkOn :D
 
At the moment I am looking at the processor which is capable of supporting 1066MhZ FSB so getting a memory kit with only 800MhZ would be a bit of a waste on the processor wouldn't it? I want to make full use of the processor and mobo combined and to do that I would need that type of memory which is capable of pumping out 1000MhZ...

Do you think I should spend it on something else? I am looking to get an X1900XT as they are more or less the same as an X1900XTX. The monitor is gonna be a Viewsonic 20.1" VP2030b.

Many thanks
