Need memory recommendation

Yoshpop · Jun 19, 2005

My current memory 2x 512mb GeiL Value Series is bottling out at ~225mhz with 2.5-4-4-8 timings and 2.7v running to it. I'm running the memory divider at ddr333 so I'm only hitting 2.43GHz (270 HTT). I know my little 3000+ venice can hit 2.7+ since I'm only running it at stock voltage right now. What's some good memory out there that won't limit my OC experience. Also I'm only trying to spend ~$120-160.

Dish out $14 more and get some OCZ EL Platinum Revision 2, they should do you fine.

to the forums....

What motherboard are you using? Do you have anything against UTT or other low latancy ram?

I'm using the K8N Neo2 platinum (1.8 BIOS) mobo. I don't have a preference at all as long as it can get the job done.

If you still want to keep it at 333, and go with a a stick that does 240-250 go with g.skill zx for 80-110 a gig.
