I Am wondering which ram will overclock better/perform better
OCZ pc 4200 EL 2x256mb or GEIL pc 4200 2x256mb
Both are rated at the same timings at 533mhz 3-4-4-8

If it matters, I got my 4200 up to 280 fsb, 1:1 and was still climbing. That was 3d stable for a week. Didn't go any higher at the time because of an issue I had with my board. Now I just booted into windows at 290 fsb 1:1, so i may try the 4200 again and see what she will do.

Good decision on the OCZ modules. BUT, OCZ PC4200EL is not 3-4-4-8..it's 2.5-4-4-7..that's why it is EL Series and not Performance.

Take care
