[rothchilds]

Thinking of picking this up today or tomorrow, but am stuck on what memory to go with. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

AMD Phenom II X4 965 + Gigabyte GA-MA790XTA-UD4 Motherboard $185 AR @ Fry's B&M

Stock or Overclock will likely affect the answer.

will go for a mild overclock, nothing major

Newegg reviews crack me up, the lastest review on those marked them down because they only run at 800mhz. lol


To the point, I'll also recommend Gskill, I've used their memory in all my AMD builds for about 2 years now and haven't had a single problem.

I too lol'ed reading the first review . It surprises me that there is no moderation system for such useless reviews.
