Hey guys!!
This is my first post on these forums and I have a question. I currently own OCZ Premier Series 2x 512mb PC3200 DDR400 2.5-3-3-7 and would liek to upgrade it to something much better. My 2 top choices are :
OCZ EL DDR PC-3200 Dual Channel Platinum Rev 2
OCZ EL DDR PC-4000 Dual Channel Gold VX
I dont know whcih one I shoul dreally buy. I know that VX is a beast but it needs high voltage but Rev2 does not. I have ASUS A8N-SLi Deluxe which I researched and it supports up to 3.0V of dimm voltage( I could be wrong, please correct me). Since 3V is the maximum I can puch will I be able to over clock my AMD Athlon64 3500+ from 2.2GHz to about 2.4 with no problems with the voltages since VX needs alot? Dont worry aboput cooling since I will be getting ZALMAN cooler along witht he RAM. Also if you think about OCZ RAM booster than forget about it because I checked and it does not support my mobo.
Maybe there is some other powerful ram out there that I dont know about, please speak up. Since this is about RAM i want to ask is it worth buying the OCZ GOld series or platinum which come 2x 1GB ?
My specs just in case:
ASUS A8N-SLi Deluxe
AMD Athlon64 3500+ 2.2GHz stock, want 2.4Ghz+ OC
ASUS Extreme N6800Ultra 2DT
Antec TruePower 550W
Thanks
