what memory good for overclocking??????

[kverve]

I read the latest topics in the memory section in Anandtech and as far as gaming is concerned I think that PQI 3200 turbo is one of the best memories for low overclocking of maximum DDR466. Do you agree as well? I am replacing my P4 2.53C Northwood Processor with a P4 3.2 C processor and my mb is the DFI Lanparty Pro
875B (Rev. A). The thing I do not quite understand is how is it possible some PC3200 memories to be able to overclock and perform better than some PC3700 for example. Does anyone know? Am I missing something here?

Shall I go for the PQI or you suggest something else? I have a Volcano 7+ cooler and I am not willing to replace it and that is why I said that I am interested iof up to DDR466 overclocking = P4 3.2@ almost 3.7.

I asked for some more info and not many people reply so I thought maybe this place is more appropriate for overclocking to post the topic...

Either Samsung TCCD Based PC3200 (ie the 2-2-2 rated PQI turbos, or most other brands of 2-2-2 PC3200 memory) or Micron G based PC3200 (Crucial Ballistix 2-2-2 PC3200).

Both of these types of chips do low timings and overclock as well as any RAM chips.

The PQI Turbo PC-4000 memory uses TCCD chips. They are great priced memory for performance.

The OCZ PC3200 Platinum Rev 2 is arguably the "best of the best" because it is not only Samsung TCCD memory chips, but also hand picked top performing TCCD chips. It's also quite expensive, and other, less expensive TCCD and Micron G chip-based RAM should suit you well too.

Nick1985 has some PC4400 G-skill that seems to OC well and is less than the OCZ but the OCZ is the best memory out there IMO

TCCD for ~$50 less than the other brands.
