Building new machine with DC2 E6750 and Asus P5K-E mobo. Which memory should I use with this CPU and mobo combo? Was considering the CORSAIR XMS2 DOMINATOR 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit.

Not that interested in OC'ng but want to leave that door open. Is DDR2-800 the way to go or should I go with DDR2-1066? The more I read about memory and timings etc the more confused I am. Looking for help from the experts.

Thanks.

DDR2-800 will give you everything you need. just stay away from OCZ though and you will have less headaches. check out my thread "Proof OCZ is not all that" posted on 9-16-07
