What RAM should I get for this mobo? budget $300CND Is the OCZ I picked a good choice? I noticed it only runs at voltage of 1.9-2.1


Are there other modules that would suit my system better? I do plan on overclocking but not killing the system so please list your ideas accordingly.

Thanks! P.S. I will be doing all my shopping at www.canadacomputers so please pick from their selection.

Here's what my system will look like

Asus P5W DH Deluxe Socket 775 Intel 975X

Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 2.13 GHz (1066MHz) 2MB L2 Cache Socket 775 Processor

OCZ DDR2 PC2-6400 2GB (2x1024MB) Platinum Revision 2 XTC Dual Channel Kit

ATI Radeon X1950 XTX 512MB GDDR4 48 Pixel Processors PCI-Express Graphics Card

( Crossfire Edition GPU I will purchase at a later date to crossfire the GPU's )

Thermaltake VC3000BWS Armor Jr. SECC Case Black w/ Window

SEASONIC S12 600W SLI/CF SSI ATX Power Supply (600HT-F3BLR)

Western Digital Raptor Enterprise SATA (WD740ADFD) 74GB 10,000 RPM 16MB Buffer (OEM)

Western Digital (WD3200KS) Caviar 320GB SATAII 7200RPM 16MB Buffer (OEM)
 
It looks like a good choice to go with Ocz memory. That place doesn't have any other memory that is PC6400 and is 2gb, yet still remains under your budget. If you overclock your processor in 1:1 to memory ratio you will be able to reach 3.2ghz. Memory might go higher depending how well it might overclock. I would not look for anything less than 2gb and pc6400.
