well for a boost. ive decided to invest in some more RAM. in the mobo manual, it reccommends that DIMM 1,2 should equal DIMM 3 for the best performence. does this hold up? (eg. 512-dimm1, 512-dimm2, 1024-dimm3.) is there any performence difference? i was thinking of going for 2x256mb 1x512. is 1 gig enough for today? im mainly a gamer and want to overclock. and finally what Ram do you reccommend? (pc3200!) i was thinking the corsair xms. are they the choice for overclocking/performence? and can i get 256mb flavours since i havent seen any around.

get a dual pack of 512mb pc4400 mem with hynix chips then crank it up to 285mhz+ and call it a day :)

i can't say if ddr2 is worth the wait, because prices will be high for some time
