RAM Newbie...

Hey,
I am a newbie at DDR. I know lots about hardware and stuff, but RAM is stuff I havnt messed with...so if someone can help me about timing and voltages that would rock.

Thanks,

Will

DDR stands for Double Data rate. It transfers data on twice per clock cycle. Most chipsets run DDR at PC2100. The KT333 chipset can run DDR at PC2100 and PC2700. The stock volatge is 2.5v and DDR is Cas 2.5. The best timings would be 2-2-2-5-1. Safe Vdimm increase IMHO would be up to 2.9v. Some people go higher. Corsair currently makes the best DDR. XMS3200 and XMS3000, both Cas 2.
