mushkin eXtreme Performance 2GB DDR500 ram. This stuff will run 250. Maybe you can up the voltage to run less that 3 timings but good luck. 1GB modules are kinda sucky on timings so I doubt you'll get the timings under 2.5

Well, from what I hear, the Crucial Ballistix is an excellent OCing ram and could probably take you to almost 300fsb. It is a bit on the pricey side, and they have been known to crap out. I myself am going with the G.Skill Extreme, which is DDR500 as well, so 250fsb won't be a problem. I hear it is very good ram for the money.
