buying new cpu motherboard and memory

Go to the Mushkin website and read about memory timings and take a look at some of the memory tests at various PC websites. Don't think you are going to need PC3700 speeds with this rig but quality ram is always a good buy. In very few "objective" reviews will any brand beat or evven match Mushkin. At least, that's my take on it.
 
yeah the only problem is very few sites test memory at 2-2-2 t1 timings on an nforce2 board above 200mhz

one other thing i noticed is that the dfi board only will let you go up to 1.8v
i heard geil memory and others need higher voltages to reach their full potential
what do you guys think ??

if overclocking is your main concern, you should go with an abit nf7-s rev.2 or epox 8rda+ for the mb.

i agree, nf7-s or 8rda+ is not only cheaper but a better OCer and generally a better board
 
if you own any of those above memories can you post what you have it clocked at, the latencies, and vdimm ??

I am leaning toward the geil stuff
they just look cool and that red light rocks


thanks everyone
