from what is on Fry's website it seems that the 2-3-2-6 is for a slightly higher voltage as listed under their detailed description. New Egg's website only states in specs a running voltage of 2.6 which is supposed to support only 3-3-3-8

Yeah, the timings are a little bit misleading in the RAM description. For what it's worth, I'm running this RAM @440MHz with timings set to 2-3-2-6. My Asrock board only has two settings for RAM voltage, Normal (1.6v) and High (1.7v) so I'm running it @1.7v. But I would do that anyway since I'm running it faster than the 400MHz spec.

(There is a user-made voltmod + BIOS hack out there that allows setting different RAM voltages on this Asrock board, but I haven't needed to use it.)

Other than the obvious, how does the 1GB stick for $75 differ from the above kit?

Also, does price matching to online price vary by B&M Fry's? OP bought it at local Fry's. But I went to my local Fry's and was told they don't match their own online price?
