Getting the right RAM for my Mobo?

[MrMoolz]

Hell all.

I am almost set for a new upgrade but I've been hearing a bit that the nforce680i chipsets can be picky with RAM..

Here is a screenshot of my upgrade so far.

Crucial Ballistix 2 GB 240 pin DDR2 SDRAM

and a

evga 122-CK-NF68-AR LGA 775 Nvidia nforce 680i ATX intel Motherboard.

The timing on the ram is decent. I'm just concerned if I could use it at full potential with this board/chipset.

Thanks in advance.

I had the same setup, 680i and the same Ballistix RAM.

They worked just fine.

If you want to, I can sell you that RAM for $230 Shipped. (Lifetime Warranty)

Wow cool. Good to know!

I may just take you up on that offer too, heh.

Let me get past the actual purchase and setup first I'll PM you.

What resolution are you playiing - you sure you need an 8800GTX?

I play on my BenQ's 20.1" native rez of 1680 x 1050.
