I think...
I've been having no end of fun (sarcasuim sadly ) with this new AMD X2 system of mine and so far have RMA'd it 3 times
Now having been charged by overclockers (whilst this might not seem bad, it is when they charge the card WITHOUT you knowing or even by having an email to say, they've found no faults and await decision or something regarding sending back) but ironically, I'm sending the same parts back with the Geil PC6400 2Gb pack back.
I'm now told it has compatibility problems with my Abit board so not to use it, which is news to me as a friend has Geil memory in his XP Mobile system and its fine.
But now my main concern is replacing the Geil memory (if it is indeed this that is causing all my problems) with something decent again. I spoke to a gent on Technical support today (I apologise I cant remember his name, was the manager of the department I think?) and he mentioned OC Z. Memory that I have had in the past and havent had a single issue with it. I've seen a few packages that I'd like some opinions on and wondering if it would suite a AM2 system ok..
Here's the few I've picked out :
OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC2-7200 Dual Channel EPP XTC Series DDR2 - £212
OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC2-8000 Dual Channel XTC Platinum Series EL-DDR2 - £294
OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC2-8000 Dual Channel Extreme Edition XTC Platinum Series EL-DDR2 £354
Now I was thinking about the middle one of the three, as its the only one in stock and I was just wondering what you guys suggested?
Many thanks and sorry for the long post...
