I was planning on getting pc3200 ram but from what I hear, pc3500 is the ideal for a good overclock. I'm definitely getting Mushkin black but not sure which to get.
 
There's nothig special in level I mushinks; level II should be still BH-5, so they might be decent. They're hella expensive too.
 
Do they still BH-5 ram module. i thought that it's been outhased by BH-6 and CH-5, right?

Where can I get a BH-5 ram and who still makes them?
 
From what I hear, mushkin's ram with bh6 chips own corsair any day. Can someone please inform me? If mushkin isn't any good then what is?
 
Here, in Poland they sell in one e-shop Hyper-X PC3200 (not A), which does 2-2-2-6 stock at 200MHz (not OC, but specifications), so it might be possible to still get these nice sticks. (If someone wanted to buy - I don't know if they send outside country and these sticks are $200 for 512Mb - komputronik.pl)

Anyway for common purposes Mushkin level II seem to be very nice for Mobiles.

Hehe, these infamous PC3000 sticks are sickos. OC so nicely.

The bad thing with my mem is that I have no mobo to use it :)
It really teases me, to know that it ran on pal's comp 210mhz, 2-2-2-5 at 2.5v, and possibly could more, we haven't tried :D
 
the mushkins 3500 level 1 is pretty good. It do it rated speed and then some, 2.5 volts too. Best I got it is 2-3-2-6. They'll need .1 volt for every 15mhz of increase.
