This RAM good for overclock?

[melchoir55]

I haven't heard of this ram before. I wanted to get buffalo firestix but they are out of stock.

This ram is going to go into an e6400 system with a p5b deluxe. I want the processor to hit 3.0-3.2 gigahertz after overclock.

Will these memory sticks work as well as the buffalo firestix for that purpose?

All you need to get 3200 MHz with an E6400 is DDR2-800, so pretty much any DDR2-800 RAM will do.

If you wish to run 4:5 (FSB @ 400ish - RAM @ 500ish), then Micron D9 ICs are imperative.

Thread here lists many of the curret Micron D9-based kits:

I just ordered that exact thing tonight. By reading reviews on newegg and online ppl have got around 900mhz at 2.1-2.3v. But thats with 4-4-4-12 timings. If you set it at 5-5-5-12(or 15) you could probably push it to that without that much voltage or push it even more. I just can't see giving $300+ for something with micron D9 IC's just to get a extra 50-150mhz.

IMO probably the best budget memory.
