pc3700 is a complete waste with AMD, get the 3200.

Very true, at most you may want to invest in some PC3500, but only if overclocking over 200MHZ!

 

[Soulkeeper]

well if you only plan to run at the rated speeds of the motherboard/memory/cpu then you have no use for anything over pc3200 right now
but if you plan to overclock or just want memory that will still be fast enough if you upgrade to a diff motherboard and/or cpu later on then you might consider pc3700 for future proofness (although ddr2 might come before yur next upgrade)

yur budget is prob yur main concern tho

PC3700 is a waste with Intel too. The DDR speed is higher and so is the latency. In the end, it is no faster than PC3200 with low latency. It just costs more.

PC3200 1GB
unless you OC, PC3700 is nearly useless

 

[edmundoab]

I'd go for the PC3200 LL

think thats the best deal for AMD based systems so far

make me cry oldfart!

i don't think my gold dragon pc3700 is a waste!!!



but yeah.. unless you are planning on doing a nice vdd mod or vmem mod to your nf7-s, then pc3700 is a complete waste...

stick with the pc3200 or at most pc3500

 

[Mustanggt]

I dont understand why 3700 would be a waste? Even if you do not overclock the FSB of future MB will only go higher, I have a NF7/S that does 225FSB total 450 FSB ,how many people have 3200 running at that speed? I was lucky and got a good stick of Corsair 3200 XMS that runs at those speeds at extrem low timings.

 

[sman789]

^^what are those timings, i shall try....

i suggest 3200 also
