.....

In my opinion, 5ns DRAM is mature, they all perform within a few MHz difference, i.e. within 3%.

For the already overclocked memory, how much more can we get. Recently there are lots of 5ns DRAM chips that can handle 200 MHz FSB with good price. This is very different than 6-12 months ago when 5 ns chips were not yet mature.

Some AMD CPU can be oc by 30-50%, but memory seems to be at most around 10%. Price/performance should be an important factor.

At this time, I'd go with the cheaper ones.
