    Which is best?

    okay, I got 3 optiones:

    Corsair XMS2
    OCZ GOLD
    OCZ S.O.E


    all 1GB (512x2) 800Mhz (PC6400)

    which one is best?
    can I get a better DDR2 memory at 100$? (newegg only!)


    B.T.W - is there 2GB memory at 100$ that worth getting?
    Core 2 Duo E6400@3Ghz
    DFI Infinity 975X
    CORSAIR XMS2 512MBx2
    SAPPHIRE X1900XT
    Enermax 420W

    The OCZ Gold is the winner here. It has better timings than both of the others and substantially better ratings than the SOE.

    Abit KN8
    AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ @ 2.6GHz
    Thermalright SI-97A w/56 CFM Panaflow
    2GB G.Skill DDR500 GBHZs 0603
    eVGA GeForce 7600GT w/Zalman VF700-CU
    Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS
    160GB Western Digital 160GB Hard Drive
    500W XG Vortec Ver. 2 PSU
    NZXT Zero/Logitech MX518, X-530/Saitek Eclipse

    CPU soon to be under WATER (this time I mean it)

    I wouldn't exactly let tRAS be a deciding factor...

    Either way, the Corsair and OCZ (Non-SOE) will do you fine. I know for a fact that the SOE and Gold are not great overclockers, but don't know about the potential of those Corsairs.
    Intel C2E QX6850 @ 3.33GHz, ASUS P5K Premium, OCZ 8GB PC2-6400, eVGA 8800GT, OCZ ModXStream 720W, Thermalright Ultra-120
    Seagate 500GB, 750GB & 1TB, Samsung 20x DVD-RW, ASUS Xonar D2X, Antec P182, Ultrasone PRO 750, Dell 2408WFP, Gentoo 2008.0

    If i were you, i would stretch an extra $14 (starve for a day, perhaps?) and get This patriot RAM. It's got decent timings and should OC nicely.
