Choosing My RAM :p

[fustercluck]

Out of these 3 choices of ram, which should i get?:

Kingston HyperX PC 3200

Corsair XMS Extreme Memory Speed Series 184 Pin 512MB DDR PC-3200C2PT

Corsair XMS Extreme Memory Speed Series 184 Pin 512MB DDR PC-3200 (isn't the one above better for the same price? 😕 )

Which one's the winner? I'm going to get an Athlon 64 3000+ with an nForce3 250GB board, going to be overclocking.

That HyperX price is higher after shipping+tax. Newegg has cheap shipping and no tax.

Really need the help, thanks.

My preference for Corsair over Kingston.

The corsairs are the same (2-3-3-6) except one has the nice platinum spreaders.

And an aside, PC3200 corsairs are good overclockers (personal experience).

I'd go with the Corsair and the only differnce between the 2 Corsairs that you listed seem to be the Heatspreaders (ie PT for Platinum)

Hey Comparisonman is actually posting in a topic other than his advertisement, what a sham.

Anyway, I prefer corsair.

Thanks for the replies, so i should get the PC-3200C2PT right? What's the C2PT mean?

If you're going to buy 2 sticks, make sure it says 1gb matched and they come in the same blister pack.

[C2]PT signifies how it's made; it has a platinum heat spreader on it; looks really nice (as if that matters)......

The info is on corsair's site.
