Please give me a hand in picking out some new RAM. I jsut got a DFI NFII Lanparty B. When I got the board I also decided to go from 512mb of RAM to 1gb, so I got ordered a gig of Mushkin basic green. Nothing I did would get the Mushkin to run stable (always failed at 98% of test 5 in Memtest 86). After talking to Mushkin they said that it would be best to RMA it back to newegg. So the RAM went back and I lost $20 in the deal. My old RAM runs fine (a 512bm stick of Bufalo pc3200 BH-5), but I still want to move up to a gig of RAM. Now would I be better off picking up 2x256 of BH-5 off someone on the forums (cause a single 512 stick of bh-5 is hard to come by). Or drop the cash for 2x512 of bh-5 from someone on tthe forums, and sell my single stick. Or should I pick up some Samsug TCCD, here is a list of what I've been looking at

I just want something that I know will run without a hich in this motherboard, and have some headroom for OC'ing. Please give me a hand here, as I don't want to have to RMA again and loose more cash in teh process. Also If you have any other choices, that will fit the bill and cost a bit less please post them cause $250 is as much as I can possabily spend but I would love to spend less.
