1x2gb.

RAM speed doesn't really matter though, except in benches.

Hey Cyber, what speed is your RAM?

1x2GB 6400 is best.

The one with the best timings is your best bet.

I have OCZ 1150mhz because it was on sale for $35 or something.

And you couldn't find some nice 667 cheaper?

I "need" them because I have a E6300 with 7x multiplier. I am running at near 500mhz FSB.
