Yet another "help me choose" thread....

BSODs are getting more frequent, chances are my old RAM is getting flakey. Memtest86+ is running right now, first pass complete with no errors but will let it grind for a few hours. Just in case it does fail.....

My board is Abit VT7. RAM requirements are as follows: 184 pin DIMM, unbuffered, non-ECC. Dual DDR 400. 4 slots, up to 4GB.

I've been looking around and pretty much narrowed it down to these choices (2G kits):

All fairly close in timings, price, etc. All would be no doubt considerably better than the 4 512mb Kingston crap I've got now.

As far as intended use, some o/c very likely.

anyone have any experience with these? Thanks for your time!

Come on guys, help me out here I can't afford to get the wrong stuff...

Please?

I would recomend you the 2nd option: Corsair XMS 3200C2PT 2GB kit, im using this stuff and its very fast and stable, newegg are selling the v1.6 which has Infineon -5 Rev B 64M X 8 IC`s.

G.L.

Thanks much!

Tho the Mushy and OCZ get my vote, that Abit mobo you have lacks Vdimm. Max I believe is 2.8v. Your best bet would be the Corsair as well. Mushy and OCZ really run their best with high voltage, but with that Abit it'll just be a waste.

The Corsair on the other hand run nice with little voltage, but be advised Corsair is not recommended for high overclocks and will do even worse with high voltage. This is from personal expierience.

Correct, max is 2.8. Thanks for the tips!
