I'm waiting to order my P5B deluxe board but first I need some new DDR2 ram to replace my old DDR 1GB ram. Since I have heard of quite a few compatability issues with the new c2d boards and RAM I thaught I'd check to see if these RAM choices were compatable before I go ahead and order.

GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit (GX22GB6400UDC) (MY-058-GL) £154.99 (£182.11 Including VAT at 17.5%)
It's currently on this weeks only at OCuk.

I've also been considering some of the G.SKILL memory, any P5B users tried these? The G.SKILL Ram seems is a little less expensive as well.

G.Skill 2GB DDR2 PK PC2-6400 (2x1GB) CAS4 Dual Channel Kit £144.99 (£170.36 Including VAT at 17.5%)

and well, theres also the Corsair

Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2-6400C5 TwinX (2x1GB) (MY-092-CS)

Any advise would be appriciated. Usage will be mostly 3D modelling and animation/rendering and some mixed CS2 usage.

Any other suggestion of better RAM or lower priced RAM would be awesome!

Thanks
