Most elpida or promos should do that, DDR2-1000 is a much harder feat.

That GEIL RAM does not get very good reviews from what I can find. Is there anything better for budget DDR2 800 RAM?

- At what point does making your timings worse to increase FSB defeat the purpose of increasing performance?
- What ram do you think I should get for the above system and what should my goals be for overclocking it?

I ordered the crucial ballistix PC2-6400 2x1GB set from ZZF. Arrived today and took off the heatspreader for a look. It's Micron, but D9DCL, not D9GMH.
Is this good memory? I found some posts that said this RAM doesn't overclock well and is "value ram"...
Thanks,
Mike

Ah wtf...Crucial decided to go & change it from the normal D9GMH
Only way to know for sure is to overclock it, but yeah, comments on XS indicate the overclocking may not be too good.
Try it & see
