OK, I am going to be upgrading in a month or so. I have decided on this much.

PSU- Antec TruePower 480
MB- Gigabyte "GA-K8NNXP"
CPU- Athlon 64 3200+

I can't really decide between Kingston Hyper X PC-3200 and Corsair XMS PC-3200 Pro. Both are running stock at 2-3-2-6 1T. WHich do you think is better for OCing?

I was also looking at the Mushkin special "222" but on their website it says it may not be overclockable in your system. HMMMMMM.

I have read somewhere that OCZ memory wasn't as overclockable as they claim. Is this true?
I am open to any suggestions.

What is the general consensus on my situation?

I am not a wiz at math, but I think your algebraic equation is stating that the Mushkin 2-2-2 is greater than the XMS and XMS is equal to the Hyper x? Sooooo the Mushkin should be my top choice. Am I correct in assuming this?

BTW on the Mushkin website they want $400 for a gig of 2-2-2. Newegg only wants $244.

Seems a little weird to me. The price difference is outrageous.......... could just be me though :eek::eek:
