I don't have any experience with GEIL but I do own some OCZ memory. I would say the OCZ PC3500 is better since it leaves a little room for overclocking purposes. If you don't overclock you have the option of tightening the timings.

yeah i have no experiance with any thats why im asking ;) the Geil is ment to be "highly" overclockable but ive noticed alot of people on here use the OCZ so im unsure at the moment but like i say im probably going to order it today or tomorrow (it's now monday lol)

I've heard good things about GEIL and most people on this forum use OCZ. Like I said, the only factor that would sway my decision is the PC3500 over the PC3200.

what board and chip is this going with, that makes a big difference in decision making, if the OCZ 3500 is TCCD like the 3200's I would get them, if they are not get the OCZ 3200 plats rev2, they are TCCD and will go faster then that pc3500 will anyway.

im getting this board at the moment:

**B Grade** DFI LanParty NF4 SLI-DR (Socket 939) PCI-Express Motherboard

Chip is undecided it be either a amd 3200 or the 3500 Venice ;)

I would stick to TCCD/TCC5 on that board, nice overclocking with low voltage.

Go for anything OCZ platinum, there's a set of ddr600 plats for sale from a member right now, Great price too.
