im going to be building this PC:
-Abit nf7-s rev 2.0
-Barton 2500+
-Geforce 128mb fx 5600 rev 2.0
-Western digital sata 120gb hd
ill be using it for:
-lots of gaming
-music
-dvds (not video editing)
-occasional programming
-OCing
i want to utilize the dual channal mode on my mobo, so ill go with either 2x256 or 2x512. for $170, i can get 2x256 of corair xms 3200 LL. for about $200 i can get 2x512 buffalo (winbond) 3200, or for about $20 more, 2x512 buffalo 3700. i know that i can OC the cosrair ram higher with faster timings, but i cant afford 1 gig of it, which runs at about $310. there's also the non-low latency xms for $260 for 2x512 sticks. i want to stay in ~$200 range, and i cant decide how much and what type of ram to get. please give me your recommendation.
