memory for my 680i

Hello all.

Got my 680i, My 8880gtx. etc

However I have 2gb of generic 533mhz crap.

Methinks an upgrade is on the horizen.

Here are some possible contenders. I will also be upgrading to C2D when intel lowers their prices.

Whayt do you dudes think. I know the Ballistix are meant to o/c like**** of a stick, but is it worth paying £30 and getting so PC-8500 stuff, which is guaranteed 1066mhz and will have a higher resell value.

What do you guys think. I will value your comments.

(speaking of which, when is intels price cuts coming)

Ballistix.

I have the ballistix and they are great...but thats a good deal on the OCZ. The ballistix will do 1066 just fine but the OCZ is nice as it is supported allt he way to 2.4v

So you recommend the Ballistix????

Cheers

Go for the ballistix as crucial have a 48hr turnaround on rma's should you have any problems.

I have the cheapy ocz pc6400 c4 kit, does 800mhz @ 4-3-3-10 t1 @2.0v, and does a mah00sive 1200mhz at 5-5-5-12 2t @ 2.1v.... stunning ram for the price...

And this is on a 680i board too
