Can anyone reccomend any ram for this board?

[Know Nuttin]

it has the SLI connector so i can't see why it wouldn't.

PQI Turbo 2-2-2-5

i just wasnt sure if all 6600gts were able to sli or not but thanks for the info :)

[trueplaya4ever8]

well if u could ever find a single 6800gt i would say go that way. :p

[El-Scotto]

lol if i could they would still be toooo much for my poor @!# anyways, plus 2 6600gts are good enough for me :p


anymore ram suggestions?

[trueplaya4ever8]

i just bought some of the patriot pc3200xbl 2-2-2-5. Should have it soon. Only $220. Or the gskill pc4400, the ones that are $245 on newegg.

is that the ram you reccomended? 240 is a bit pricey is there perhaps some a tad cheaper but almost as good :p

and a new item....power supplies!
ive heard great things about the antec neopower, would this be good enough to run my sli rig thought?

Heres the tccd i just bought : http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-220-033&depa=0
Only 215 now, was 220 when i bought it yesterday, lol.

As for the power supply, I think i would grab a ocz powersteam 530.

Sound is something i dont kno much about. XD

[El-Scotto]

that ram looks nice, heard a lot of good things about patriot

You wait for the price to drop and it's always the same, then you go and buy it and it goes down after you buy it. :bang head

[AZNBoiOnFIYA]

usually the price drop is only neglible. and besides, the shipping compensates for it.

hahah well either way its going to take me awhile to get this all together as i doubt i will be able to finish it with my next paycheck. Mobo arrives tom. CPU monday i hope. I will probally purchsae a 6600gt with my next check, then ram, hard drives and finally the case
