Overclocking or not?

Overclocking then none of the above.

Here's my take on it.

 

[masshass81]

I read that the OCZ EB 3500s go very nicely with the socket 939s

 

[jim3888]

prtobably overclocking in a learning kinda way

OCZ 3500/3700 EB

or have a look at Aelius' thread.

A lot of guys on the MSI boards are saying that the Crucial Ballistix is good with this board. It uses Micron chips, and so do the OCZ (3500 and up, the OCZ 3200 uses Samsung chips) so it's probably a matter of which color heatspreaders you prefer.

I bought the 3700EB. Haven't attempted an overclock yet, but will by October. Anandtech seems to thinnk that the 3700EB is a great choice for the 939's.

anybody heAr anytrhing about geIL ultra x?

 

[dadonchezina]

I hear the ultra X is good quality ram but it sucks for overcloking.

Not according to AnandTech's review. Geil is one of the top performers.

Personally I would look into Corsair, OCZ, and Geil. All are good, just compare prices and go from there.

OCZ PC3700 EB is the best memory for A64 bar none.
