So you think you know Memory?

Thanks in advance,

Hum, then looks just like the 2x512's some wonderful person sent you :P
They and the GSkill BHZ's are about the best IMO

@hicks
i second that

[[cTx]SGT.Viper]

The prob i am facing is this board will not take 2 sticks of ram. No matter what i do it locks up. So what i was thinking is i would get 2, 2gig sticks so that even if this board says no to multiple sticks i will have 2 gigs of ram on the board any way. Then when i update system in a month or so in i will have 4 gigs. Hope this made since.

I've got a set of the 2x2gb G.Skill PC2-8000 PQ sticks. They've been working pretty well for me.

there you go, thats the memory i bought lately.

[[XC] mysticmerlin]

What board do you have? I know that Ballitix's you have so if they aren't working then maybe try some GSkill's instead. :shrug:

He has that Abit Fatal1ty board, I can't remember the model.

[[XC] mysticmerlin]

Ugh Abit and I just don't get along anymore :( Have had bad experience with the 939 and 775's both and sold them on flebay just to be rid of them.

Get the 667 set. WAY higher binned (guaranteed D9GMH) and cheaper. :)

[[cTx]SGT.Viper]

So, Corsair no good then?

[[XC] mysticmerlin]

It is ok. When you are not OCing most anything will work @ rated speeds ect. Just pick what you think looks good.

SGT.Viper;2728836']So, Corsair no good then?

I would also recommend what Knight recommended. OCZ or G.Skill since they have better chips normally.

I have this in my HTPC rig CorsairXMS2 2x1 CL 4 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145034)

That I can't get to run stable in an ASUS P5N-E SLI 650I board. I just think it's a compatibility issue, I've found threads discussing the problem. I'll let those go cheap and I'm in Ravenna.
