I am currently building my new rig and all is here except for memory. System specs are as follows.

DFI Expert Mobo

FX 60

2 XFX 7800 XXX 512's in SLI

SB X-FI Fatality

PC Power & Cooling 1K PSU

Cooled by Litespeed on CPU and DD water with 80 watt pelts on Vid cards

My question is what memory to use in this setup. I’m going to be using 2-1 gig modules and I am looking for the absolute fastest out, Corsair, OCZ, G Skill? Opinions are needed and if you’re using the same board please list your speeds and settings.

THe Fx is G.Skill
and I got a set to 320Mhz
as for the Hz the standard range for the UCCC chips is between 260-280Mhz

in your opinion what would be the best overall performance 4x512 or 2x1024

2x1024mb hands down.. For two reasons
First you can double 2x1024mb but you can't double 4x512mb
Second 2x1024mb Benchmarks better I hear

Oh and just a side note you might just want to buy one of the 7800GTx 512s
Because a new Card is supposed to come out shortly (ATi) but I hear good things
