I do want to overclock. I never have before but with the guides here, and a little studying shouldnt be too much of a problem.

I have a little headroom pricewise , but Im not itchingf to spend much more.

If you have any advice Im all ears (or eyes) in this case. Will be my first build and Im pressing the order button monday morning or sunday night on something.

Where is the memory?

 

[Wags1974]

I must have deleted it in my cut and paste, sorry.

I am going with corsair value ram ddr400 2x512 for like a buck30.

I hear mixed reviews on everything so its pretty much a crap shoot thats why I posted.

 

[Wags1974]

Also one set of corsair 3200 2x512 is 134$ , and the other is same but says dual channel and is 138$.

Is it just a rebadge? I thought it would all do dual channel if configured correctly.

 

[Wags1974]

Ok its on the way tomorrow, ill let you all know how the build goes.

I wouldn't, but I like stability 🙂

Also, don't forget to get the MIR from Trend Micro's website for $25.00 if you have any old Norton or McAfee antivirus CD's or receipts.
