I really wanna go with the 96$ ram since i will be on a tight budget but yet im very skeptical of it, since it has no review..

It looks like the F2-6400CL4S-1GBPK is single channel and the F2-6400PHU1-1GBHZ is dual channel according to their website.

That doesn't make any sense since they're both single sticks and can't be dual channel.

K3N, if you look closely at their specs from the website, you'll se that the F2-6400PHU1-1GBHZ is rated at 2.0~2.1 Volts whereas the F2-6400CL4S-1GBPK is 1.9~2.0 Volts. The newegg description for the F2-6400CL4S-1GBPK is wrong.

Aah, thanks man. So it would be better for me to go with the 120$ version with the higher voltage if i plan to overclock an Amd x2 3800?

No, it would be better for you to go with a 2x512MB kit to get Dual Channel.

CAS 5 will get you in under $100, and CAS 4 will cost you around $113 (an OCZ set). Voltage isn't going to have much of an impact, but I'd go with CAS 4 (CAS 3 is top of the line, CAS 5 bottom basically). Since you can get CAS 4 for like $20 more than the slowest possible, I'd drop the extra $20.
