Identifying best memory for overclocking...

Can someone help me out. I have two sticks of 2100 2.5 DDR and one is going into a new P4 1.8 with hopes of overclocking. I thought I could tell the chips speed by just looking at then, but I'm not sure. Will someone let me know what the chips are and which one will probably OC better?

Crucial 2100 256MB - numbers on MT chips:
0136....................2-2
MT...............46V16M8
TG....................-75..A

Kingston value ram - nanya chip info:
NANYA....................0126
NT5DS16M8AT-7K...........
00100BPT.......singapore

I was going to use the Crucial, but from what I know it looks like the MT chips are rated at 7.5ns while the Nanya chips are only 7ns.

Thanks,
D.
 
test them both out!
i think it's safe to say... that every ram stick performs differently.
sure... you can expect certain brand's certain stick to perform at a certain level...
but to find out the max performance of any stick...
you really gotta push them to their limit.

like crucial ... i've been using them ever since i can remember.
and i o/c pc2100's to 150 easy... which isn't half bad. 🙂
