I'm melting . . . melting! (Which DDR2 Memory/Core2 Duo)

[Big.Wayne]

Hiya peeps,

just trying to work out which of these 2GB-Dual-Channel kits would be the most fun to use with a new e6300/e6400 system, either with an ASUS P5B Deluxe/WiFi-AP or maybe an Gigabyte GA 965P-DS4

In order from cheapest to dearest (about £75.00 difference between the first and last set).


G.Skill PC2-6400 PK Series 4-4-4-12

A-Data PC2-6400 Vitesta CL4

GeIL PC2-6400 Ultra CL4

OCZ PC2-6400 Platinum Revision 2

CorsairTwinX XMS2 Dominator PC6400

A-Data PC2-8000 Vitesta


I'm new to DDR2 and Core2 Duo but I am trying to get the right sticks so that when its comes to overclocking, the thing most likely to cr*p out first is the CPU

Think I'm gonna go with . . .

ASUS P5B Deluxe/WiFi-AP

CorsairTwinX XMS2 Dominator PC6400

Any problems there?

Crucial Tenth Aniversary PC2-5300 3-3-3-12

CellShock DDR2 PC2-6400 4-4-4-12, assuming you get one of the new batches (1.09196.95.360 & 1.09256.97.360) utilising Micron D9GKX ICs.

Hi,

yeah I am looking at the Crucial stuff now (blue heatspreaders) what can it be clocked to then?

Same question about the CellShock stuff?

[edit] ok I just read this thread: Cellshock PC6400 = PC8000 looks good!
