I am trying to decide what memory to get for my new rig, which will be based on an Asus A8V Deluxe motherboard. I like the idea of getting PC4000 memory because it will give me more overclocking headroom and at the same time be more "future-proof". However, I am really confused as to why 2x512MB of PC4000 would be cheaper than 2x512MB of PC3200, same brand. I realize that the timings are tighter on the PC3200, but does that really make up for the fact that its rated speed is 50 MHz lower than the PC4000? What advice would you give me?
