Hi guys,

I've just sold my 3.2EE and OCZ Gold 4000 RAM... and I'm now in need of a replacement!!

Ive never had AMD before, but as Im a gamer 1st and overclocker 2nd, I think it's now time to join the ranks of A64 lovers!!

Im very tempted to get a new 90nm Winchester 3500+ on the Asus A8V Deluxe.... Im a little stuck on the RAM front but the versatility of the Gskill looks immense. I was tempted by the PC3200 = 2-2-2-5 / PC4400 = 2.5-3-3-7

Is this a good choice?

I shall be using the CPU in my Mach II GT, so Im hoping for around 3ghz if possible!!

What RAM would you guys recommend?

Some nice TCCD RAM...either the Gskill or the OCZ. I would go for the OCZ being an OCZ fan...but either one would work. OCZ 3200 rev. 2 I believe....

NF4 I believe has a launched date of Nov. I believe. NF4 is only going to be PCI-E :) the NF4 is basicly a NF3 with PCI-E. Either get the NEO2 or wait for that NEO4 board I heard about..I wish I could remember where..so I may just be crazy and their may not be a NEO4...o'well :(
