It's very solid memory and certainly won't hold you back from getting a 4GB+ OC.

I too am specing out a new build but was looking at this ram Corsair Dominator 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C8 (1600MHz) Tri-Channel (TR3X6G1600C8D) [TR3X6G1600C8D] http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-168-CS&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=1389 will that overclock equally well

thanks for any info

The second one has better timings which is why it costs more, and may overclock higher if relaxed to 9-9-9-28.

Its up to you if you want to spend the extra for Cas 8, or just get the cheaper Cas 9 stuff
