First things first. This is my current memory:
G.SKILL 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Desktop Memory - Retail.
My memory is what I suspect is my limiting factor in my OC right now. Aside from that, I need to know what to do next. I just ordered my 8800GTS and I want to follow-up that by getting some more memory before the prices start going back up. I need 1 more GB or a better pair....
Options:
(1) Buy another stick of this same memory, dual channel it and call it a day and be happy.
(2) Buy better memory.
If I go with Option #1: That would basically complete my uber setup.
If I go with Option #2: I would either end up with two different sticks, 3GB (2 same, this one different) or some other combination or solution.
My other options as I see it, are as follows:
(A) G.SKILL 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Desktop Memory - Retail
(B) Crucial Ballistix 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Desktop Memory - OEM
(C) G.SKILL 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Desktop Memory - Retail
(D) G.SKILL 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Desktop Memory - Retail
(E) GeIL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail
(F) G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail
(G) G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail
(H = 2x(B)) Crucial Ballistix 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Desktop Memory - OEM
(I) G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail
(J) Do not buy any more memory.
