cant go wrong with a good pair of g-skill http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231283
i normally only buy corsair but i dont believe there making ddr2 any longer,but g skill is a good trusted brand for ram too=))

The FLEX EX kits are designed for watercooling (notice the inlet/outlet barbs on each end)... So if you're not going to watercool there is no point in getting those.

The gskoll jazon1 linked to is a good choice... Or you could find a kit in the 1066 at CL5...

There are these dominator GTs...

I'm a little hesitant about these though because crossair doesn't recognize that they exsist... Jc... Y do u recommend g-skills? I would just like to know why you chose that ram over others... Sry, I don't know much about ram

 

[jazon1]

im just recommending the g-skill because i cant find you any good corsair ram that is still in production in ddr2 and g-skill is a more respected brand as far as ram goes compared to ocz tho if we were talking SSD's OCZ would be my first choice=))

kk... ty... i was just wondering, i realize rereading my post that i could have come off as an @$$... i didnt mean it that way at all

 

[Fatticus]

check out Mushkin, i have never heard very good things about OCZ, even more so after this whole SSD fiasco...anyway i really like my Mushkin sitcks and they overclocked nicely as well, i am running 6gb of ddr3 mind you...these sticks are quick though

just so you know EOL stands for END of LIFE so those ocz are defunct now. I would get some gskill or corsair. ddr2 is way expensive

i would recommend http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231145

 

[eskamobob1]

i think ill probably get some low voltage g-skills or something similar... i had heard good things about OCZ from a few people, and those were some ram that i had seen good reviews for and could find to buy... im glad i asked other people their opinion, because it seems pretty unanimous against them... lol... ty for the help this far

@Deathhorse

ik that EOL stands for end of life, but there are still easy to find retailers that sell those specific ones

i bought some oczs and i love them. I didnt know how up you were on the ram mfg's so my apologies for assuming.

I dont personally use the ocz website to get specs but maybe i should
