Mem for athlon 64

[moosey]

I checked the Anand A64 mem roundup and saw that the Crucial Ballistix faired pretty well, and it fits my price range. I want PC3200 (using NF4 Ultra board) to run at the lowest possible timings reliably and I don't really want to spend more than $240. I'd also prefer if it ran at the defualt DDR voltage at the low timings. I would try o/c a bit but not hardcore. Out of these others below, would you vote for the Ballistix or something else?

Corsair or Crucial. Crucial tends to OC a tad better, and CAS latencies of 2-2-2-7 seem to be the sweet spot as opposed to 2-2-2-5.

So between the crucial and corsair, does the diff in Samsung or Micron chips really matter in the A64 systems?

i own a pair of ballistix memory and its blazing fast and can keep low timing, even with high mhz

I've only tried the Ballistix but it's good stuff, runs tighter than spec even undervolted to 2.7.

Go for the Crucial at all costs! I own Ballistix memory and its great!
