All my specs are in my SIG- my ram I have now is wicked slow.... im getting crappy scores on all my benchmarks. I know people can get 10,000+ in 3Dmark 06... Im getting like 7,800. I can contribute this to my ram and/or CPU. I have my D 920 overclocked to 3.5 GHz... So I wouldn’t think it was my CPU alone.

Im thinking of upgrading the RAM and CPU. I’ll be buying new ram this weekend.... I wanna keep it DDR2 800 - just wondering what you guys think I should go with...:confused:

I have read some good things on this ram

Both your links goto the Corsair ram, so I'm not sure what you are running atm. I have always stuck with OCZ, very happy with the results they have given me time and time again.

Link to the ones I'm currently using:

They say timings of 4-5-4-15-22, but I had mine at 4-4-4-10-16 with only 1.95v, leaving you plenty of Vdimm for OC'ing.

I would pick the Rev 2 of the mem listed above, its pretty much the same price and is slightly better. The corsair is also good. You will not be disappointed with it if that is your choice.
