I am going to change my memory from
G.Skill 2GB DDR2 LA PC2-5400 (2x1GB) CAS4
My price range is about £240
Heres a few i have looked at on overclockers and im not sure which is best.
I have an asus p5b mobo which i will probably upgrade in a couple of months also.
G.Skill 2GB DDR2 HZ PC2-6400 (2x1GB) CAS4 £193
Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2-6400C4 TwinX £229
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400 800MHz Ultra Low Latency £205
OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC2-6400 Dual Channel Platinum Revision 2 £199

Patriot 2GB (2x1GB) PC7200 900MHz DDR2 £234
OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC2-8000 Dual Channel XTC Platinum Series EL £246 will either of these these work in my board as it says its compatible with 800/667/533?

Can somebody help me choose please?

H'mm? are the Crucial Ballistix DDR 2 2GB kits prone to failiure as well? I thought this only effected the DDR 1 Ram?

ahh, no, i though your on ddr1, ballistix ddr2 so far has no reported issues of failures.
