Just bought a new 875P MB (Chaintech 9CJS ZENITH) and a P4-2.8E processor. I probably won't overclock too far, but would like to tweak it a little at times (when noise of fans isn't an issue).

I have decided on 1GB (512 x 2) Corsair TwinXMS ram modules, but don't know which ones to buy. It seems the different versions (-3200, -3200LL, -3200C2) are tested using different systems and have different timings. The price differences are not that significant in the grand scheme of things.

Which ones should I buy. Some mention the 875P chipset and some mention AMD chipsets.

Thanks for the help.
 
Update

OK, so I have read a little more and am now wondering if I would do better with PC4000 ram or PC3200. If I am not overclocking, can I run the PC4000 at low latency settings like the PC3200, but still have the ability to overclock at times and relax the latency settings as neccesary.

I really don't want to regret my Ram purchase once I try some overclocking, but realize that for most of my operation I don't need to overclock and would rather keep temps down.

Please Help.

Thanks
