Ok Just put a new system together, Asus A8N SLI Deluxe, 3700+ Venice with some pretty old Corsiar Ram 2 X 512MB, specd at DDR 443 2-5-5-7, it served its purpose on my old P4 IC7-Max 3 system for 2 years. I wanna move to bigger, better memory and I just saw the OCZ Pair of 1 GB sticks (Z4002048ELDCPE-K model) for like 300 bucks which seems like a steal to me. I currently max my memory cuz I run alot of background stuff and have multiple windows open and it would make an awesome transition to windows 64 when it is fully capable or running all my devices. Is there anything i should be weary about? I will not be overclocking on the start and if it means less OC headroom I really do not mind as stabilty is key to me (hence not getting the DFi for insane 300FSB overclocks). The spec on this ram is for 1T right? And it seems with such good timmings at PC3200 speeds (I am, assuming, the spec pages on these things all say as low as 2-3-2-5, wether that means at DDR400 or DDR333 I really do not know, clarification would be great!) If I ever overclocked the most I would go would prolly be like 237 Memory Frequency to get the 2.2 to 2.6 (which I think is an excellent clock if my chip can pull it off, plus I read some places memory runs asynch anyways!)
So in essence would this be a good buy for my needs?
