Not sure if I should ask this here or in the memory section but I really wanted to hear from as many AMDers as possible...hope it is okay here.
I'm putting together a new system with a Barton 2500+ and a NF7-S rev. 2.0. I'm looking for reccomendations for good, cost effective memory for moderate overclocking. I'm a bit disappointed with my initial results using my old Corsair VS333. As you can see from my sig my old rig is a KD7-S on which I have no trouble running 2250mhz (166 x 13.5) at stock volts. Old rig runs cool and stable. The best I've been able to get with the NF7 is 2167mhz (166x13). I tried lowering the multi and raising the FSB but could not get above 178; figgured that the pc2700 mem was the problem. I thought I should at least be able to equal the oc on my KD7 at 166fsb but so far no luck.
I'd sure appreciate any memory recomendations as well as other advice on this rig! BTW I'm using a new Thermaltake Silent Boost HSF, nice and quiet, low temps!
