Ok, I have $300.00 dollars from something extra that I saved for myself. I need to buy a video card, ram, and I want to buy the pioneer 16x dvd player from newegg.com.

I was wondering... should I buy the crucial ram for $107.00 free shipping, or should I just go with a kingston stick of ram?

I game, and overclock a lot. So what type of ram would you go with?

Video card... I was thinking about picking up the Geforce Pro from newegg.com for 150ish.

So what do you think I should go with? Remember my budget is $300.00. If you guys have better deals then let me know.

I live in Hawaii so think about shipping, it costs a little big more when shipping here. Thanks guys!

Do you have a DVD already?
If so stuff getting a new. I find that I never need more speed than my Creative 6x offers (concerning DVD, CD speed though...24X stinks, but I have a 32x Pioneer serving me ok). I can thoroughly recommend the GTS Pro, the clocking capacity is very potential (check my spec) and offers xllent performance. High q memory is ALWAYS desirable, although if you are planning to get DDR board in near future, I'd waste líttle money on xpensive ram right now.
