Hi, Im looking for some faster DDR2 as i currently have Corsair value 667mhz (CL5) Which of these sets would be the best for overclocking and compatibility in a DS3;

1. Patriot 2GB PC7200 900MHz CL5-5-5-15
2. G.Skill 2GB DDR2 ZX PC2-6400 CL4-4-4-12
3. OCZ 2GB PC2-6400 Special Ops XTC Series CL5-5-5-12
4. OCZ 2GB PC2-6400 Platinum Revision 2 XTC CL4-4-4-15
5. GeIL 2GB PC6400C4 800MHz CL4-4-4-12
6. Crucial Ballistix 2GB DDR2 PC2-5300 667MHz CL3

Any other sugestions are welcome, Thanks

Ben

Thanks a lot for the advise, is the PAtriot no good then? Just wondering as thats the only 900mhz set there, Thanks Ben

If anyone has any first-hand experiences then that will be great.

Thanks for the suggestion , you posted while i was writing, they look like a good set, i will add those to my list but they are slightly more expensive than the other sets, are they definatly worth the extra?

Thanks once again, Ben

Yip.

How fast will you be needing the RAM to run?

The Geil and OCZ are fine if you're not needing over ~900mhz.
 
It is. Certainly in that price bracket.

In theory it could get an e6300 to over 3.5ghz.

Tho your e6300 will probably crap out before the RAM does.
