Take a look at these two:

Corsair XMS 2-3-3-5:

OCZ PC3200 2-3-2-5:

Leaning toward the OCZ as I've bought from them the last two times and have been perfectly happy.

your rig does not need that kind of ram. Why would you spend that kind of money on ram but not for your CPU man?

Get valueram and save for a X2.

I'll upgrade my CPU when it's time. If the trade goes smoothly, I'll drop the RAM I have now and pick up one of these two. The difference is $50 for another GB of RAM, and then there's a rebate.

Forgot to mention running on single channel right now. I'd like to go 2GB dual channel.

I used to have 1GB (2x512) Mushkin in dual channel. Faster than my single 1GB OCZ, but I was hoping to grab another stick later. The extra headroom means I don't have to OC the memory in order to achieve my CPU's OC. The mushkin didn't OC very well.

Still, I could use the dual channel 2GB, not only in gaming, but I do some photoshop work and have massive files open.

your links are backwards

i'd go with the corsair (cause they're both good and it's cheaper)

You have pc4000 ram and now you're gettin pc3200... I don't get why yo ubought the first set them.. I'm just confuse.d

I previously had 1GB (2x512) Mushkin PC3200 RAM. OC'ed like crap; couldn't get it stable at 220MHz, even after giving it a little more juice. I had to drop the ratio to 5:6 to get the OC I wanted out of it. I switched to PC4000 so that I wouldn't have to worry about stability issues... I'm border-line aneurysm if my PC crashes.
