Which ram?

[MoFunk]

I want to overclock the poop out of it. Should I get 1 stick of 512 OCZ DDR PC-3500 or Corsair PC-3500? Which is better. I have seen some mixed reviews so thought I would bring the question here. Thanks.

Oh yeah, it will be going into an Epox 8K3A+ with an XP2000 unlocked. Currently running with 2x256 crucial PC2100 at 9.5x177@1681

stay far, far, FAR away from OCZ memory. The chip quality is inconsistent, sometimes you're getting just overclocked slower chips, and the service is horrible. Go Corsair.

Corsair! get one with heat spreaders (they all might not sure tho)

Out of those two.. definitely Corsair


Those pc2100 Crucials should be able to run to 200mhz or close to it.. I currently run mine at 194mhz x 9.5 (and yes, these are also 2x256mb modules of crucial pc2100)

Hmmm. Maybe it is something else holding me back. I am also considering the Epox 8RDA+ so that the PCI and AGP are locked. But I have to find a raid card for that. Maybe that is my problem. I have a KyroII card, nic, firewire and modem.

Another vote for Corsair !
