Hi,
So I've gotten as far as deciding which mobo (Asus p5w DH deluxe), CPU (Intel Core 2 Duo e6600), GFX (Radeon X1900 GT) and memory (G.Skill) I'm getting for my overclocking adventures.
I have picked G.Skill by checking this thread:

G.Skill seems to perform very well with my combo. But I don't know... Do you think a mem like Corsair would work as well as the G.Skill for me?
One question still remains though. There seems to be 2 types of G.Skill memory for me to decide between that are reasonably priced. Or are there more than 2?
These are the 2 different G.Skills I've found that are mathing my mobo and CPU well:
2048MB G.SKILL PC2-800 CL5 KIT F2-6400PHU2-2GBNS (seems more expensive, is red and says, "Designed for Intel only"
2048MB G.SKILL PC2-800 CL5 KIT F2-6400PHU2-2GBNR (seems cheaper, is green and says, "Designed for both Intel and AMD")
Which one should I be going for? Is there any real difference between them?
I've learned that these RAM's should have "D9GMH" (Seems to help OCing or something ). Do they all have it or is that something that you should ALSO look careful for before buying?
