What RAM to buy?

[JayBirdJay]

Motherboard arrived today. I also have other parts on the way:

e4500 C2D 2.2 GHz
WD2500AAKS SATA 250GB Hard Drive
Plextor PX-810SA SATA DVD Burner

Now my question is what RAM to buy that will give the best overclocking wihtout any moding of the board?

Thanks to all!

I've been very happy with my GeIL memory, and it's on the QVL for a lot of manufacturers.

Too bad you didn't tell us your motherboard model...

Stick with quality JEDEC 1.8V DDR2 667 or 800 RAMs from Crucial or Kingston. Kingston's N5 DDR2 667 should work very well with many boards at default settings. Avoid any RAM that not nominally rated at 1.8V.

JayBird,

What's up? I just answered this identical post that had zero responses before I answered it. You must have posted the same thing twice. Check it out here: http://forums.anandtech.com/me...=2118429&enterthread=y Try to be careful about double posts, that can lead to confusion...

Great Yoda I am a newbe. I created a topic when all I wanted to do was reply in the Asrock 4CoreDual SATA II Message board.

Dear JBJ,

Yoda says: "Worry not".....

As for memory, which is an incredible bargain right now, one of these 2 x 1GB sets:

DDR2 667 or 800, all 1.8v--which means they are compatible with just about any motherboard--and, good name brands, with lifetime warranty.

HTH
