one guy was running like 250 fsb and like 301 memory with some pc4200 from komusa in single channel. as i recall it was a lanparty mb with an 64 using 4/5 ratio..

I usually see people suggest ram with good timings and overclockablity (usualy memory with Winbond BH-5/6 chips) rather than high FSB PC4XXX stuff. Though I'm not exactly why (I have my guesses but if anyone wants to explain...)

What kind of memory would you guys suggest for a asusb skv8? Was looking at smething higher than pc3200. Maybe something around pc4000

If you can find some of the newer samsung stuff that is supposed to be the second coming of BH-5 or whatever, people are saying decent enough timings at 250.
