Hello,
I just purchased a Core 2 X6800 and the ASUS P5W-DH Deluxe MB. I'm curious as to what would be the best RAM for me to select to overclock with using this combo.
I'm hoping for 4 GB, probably DDR2?


Thanks in advance for any advice.

Edit: yes I meant X6800 :)

I was not aware of a C2D model E6800. But for that mobo, Corsair XMS2 DDR2 800 or Crucial Ballistix DDR2 800 or G.Skill HZ DDR2 800 will all do fine. Get the 2GB kit. 4GB is overkill and waste of money unless you're running some major work related apps.

i agree. i have the g skill set and my pentium D 930 is at 4.1Ghz from 3Ghz. runs perfectly stable and fast.

i think he meant the X6800...

and that reminds me, i need to get crackin' on buying an E6600.
