Ok I need to purchase new RAM for my evga 680i SE, it can handle 800 to 1200 what would you reccomend and what prices are they, looking for at least around the 100$ range.

49.99 after mail in rebate. If you want to spend $100 then get 2 sets for 4gb of ram.

Awesome ram, you won't regret it.

nice, i like both of them, i was searching neweg and found a pair of g. skills that are 5-5-5-15 but they can be bumped to 4-4-4-12. for only 50$ plus i got another 10$ off my RAM purchase since my last pair of ram sticks failed, i love newegg, so 40$ for 2GB is one hell of a deal, what you think?

They are all good deals, just depend what you are going to do with your system. If you aren't going to overclock I would just get whatever is cheapest. If you are going to overclock, the crucial ballistix should be quite nice.

I agree, but the mail in rebate can't be used by the same person twice (I tried). I definitely agree that this ram is a steal, but the price of DDR2 is coming down everywhere now and I have seen 2X2 Gb, 800Mhz OCZ for $70-80 (although I can't find the deal anymore and am not sure as to the overclockability).
