Ok a little background- First off I'm new here- New to OC and wanting to learn. I have just purchased a new computer after doing research on Mobos,pcu's and such...unfortunately not memory. I screwed up!!! I bought memory-up memory from their site(found them through pricewatch)
ANYWAY...I am returning this junk and I need help buying memory...
This is what i have got
2.8P4 875 chipset
ASUS P4C800 Deluxe Mobo
480w TrueBlue PS
I run a 9700 Pro vid card
I want a gig of memory. I dont overclock because I dont know how- I've bought products(or so i think) to attempt to start overclocking...in baby steps.
Right now I just need help with memory. I paid (too much probably) 180 for a gig of this memory-up com stuff...I am willing to pay 175-250 for memory IF ITS WORTH IT. Because I'm not a HEAVY overclocker...Is there a good value memory that wouldnt run as much that would give me same results
I dont mind spending the money but because I'm not an experienced OCer I dont want to buy something I wont utilize to its full potential either. What would give me the best results while not Overclocking...I am running air cool- so I assume(new so dont know) that OCing is risky without watercooled system or something comparible.
Sorry so long- Thanks
Please help
