What memory to get?


My new system will have a Asus P4P800 deluxe mobo with an Intel 3.2 w/HT, but I cannot decide what memory to buy. I would like the option to overclock later on while still have great performance now and later. Some of the brands I have looked at are Corsair XMS, Kingston, Geil, and Mushkin. I found some Mushkin 2-2-2 pc3200 with BH-6 but they only carry PC3200. If anyone could suggest some good brands/models I would be very happy, I am going out of my mind looking at the gagillion different types of RAM out there.

i am sort of skeptical about that RAM. It doesnt have a brand and it is extremely cheap compared to the name brands out there. I think I will have to go with some Geil, Corsair, or Mushkin on this one.

If you want to OC your memory, definently go name brand. Your choices sound good; I think Corsair is one of the most popular for OCers. Make sure it comes with (or buy) heat spreaders. You could also look for memory heat sinks, though I've only seen them for video cards last time I looked.
