Hey im curious as to wether or not I should go get some Mushkin blk Label II for the AMD 64. Is the 64 run better with timings 2-2-2-6 or is it better on memory bandwith of 250mhz of the Geil? I know P4 love the bandwith not sure on the AMD64. I will have to sell my Geil PC4000 and go Mushkin if that is the case. Any ideas? Also how the heck is everyone getting over 230fsb on the AMD 64 chips? I seen some doing 260-270... how is that possible?

Ok thx. I ordered some Kingston KHX3200K2 ram from zipzoomfly. BH-5 chips. Low latency 2-2-2-6 T1.
Good deal, how much juice can you give them?
Also don't forget to let us know how they turn out for you...
