RAM choices...

[Sonic587]

Corsair

G. Skill

Mushkin

EDIT: This will be for an mobile Athlon XP system, so I would like to OC atleast a little bit. Is that a reasonable goal with any of these choices?

Gskill is the best out of those. But what about Twinmos 1 gig set based on VX value ram chips. Those with 3.4v+ will get you 2-2-2-5 at 240FSB. They should also be around $100-105 on newegg.

I was looking at the Twinmos, but my motherboard only supports up to 3.0V for the RAM. And From what I've read, they don't really start OCing until you get to the 3.2V+ range.

Thanks for the feedback.

Among those, I would take the Gskill, but I would consider the Patriot as well. My friend is using the Patriot XBL for his system, and so far it's working flawlessly. Great price too 🙂.

Is this the right RAM? Looks even better than the G. Skill!

What speed is your friend running them at?

EDIT: Whoops, just noticed that link is only 512MB. 1GB of that looks a bit out of my price range. 🙁 Oh well. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Yeah it's that ram. My friend is running it @275 2.5-3-3 2.9V, running on a MSI K8N Neo2. It could probably go higher, but he saw no need to push it further than that. That's really awesome memory for the price 😀.
