Any recommendation of selecting good, yet affordable performance RAm so I can OC kaw2 on my proc?

QUOTE(CV6149 @ Dec 27 2007, 06:32 PM) it would be better to give the ram model name and the price too. Actually you can check the pricing by downloading PDF files from www.lowyat.net, respectively to shops listed at the website, such as Cycom, Czone and PCzone.. For example, OCZ listing as shown below: OCZ Desktop Memory (Performance Series): OCZ Gold 2G800GK DDR2 800 5-5-5-122x1GB220 RM220 OCZ Reaper HPC 800 2GB Kit (Heatpipe)4-4-4-152x1GB300 RM300 OCZ Nvidia SLI 800 2GB Kit EPP4-4-4-152x1GB RM300 Anyone own these OCZ? However I am pondering DevilMan's saying.. Perhaps normal ballistic or crucual 10th is a better bargain.. moreover it's DG9 chipset (I'm not sure the spelling, sorry dude)

QUOTE(-pWs- @ Dec 27 2007, 06:31 PM) How bout Crucial 10th Anniversary? Now this ram is very cheap. For OCZ, I am not sure. But i am not saying that the ram is not good -pWs-Eh, how much the 10th annivesary pricing? Added on December 27, 2007, 6:51 pmQUOTE(lohwenli @ Dec 27 2007, 06:47 PM) I've seen the OCZ reaper do some crazy overclocks..boy does that ram love voltage..2.6v is common, and some have even run it as high as 2.8-2.9v. Oh btw, 1350 is a typical overclock for the reapers, as long as you're willing to pump the voltage (but still at a 'survivable' level). Timings can be fiendishly tight if you're willing to settle for a lower but still 1000+ overclock. whoa bro lohwenli, mind if you could kindly let me know the links to these OC website, that show OCZ OCing result?

QUOTE(dblooi @ Dec 29 2007, 12:47 PM) gentlemen , AMD 780G chipset mobo is coming soon according to biostar, the integrated gc performance is 3X better than 690G support hybrid crossfire technology and DX10 Southbridge is using SB700  ( Unlike Biostar TA770 that uses SB600. ) Good info. But personally I think solid capacitor is better for longevity = jangka hayat.. sure it's expensive buying mainboard with all or some solid capacitors soldered...

QUOTE(cyberloner @ Dec 31 2007, 12:14 AM) biostar wanna use for 3 years? ... i worry caps bomb wor.. hehe Well, Biostar using solid capacitors around the CPU socket for lasting longer compared to aluminium electrolytic capacitors In somewhat unrelated to AMD discussion here, I've seen an Intel Mainboard that use entirely solid capacitors. uhh that so expensive, but I know it can last longer. reference to wikipedia website: OS-CON capacitorOS-CON capacitor (solid capacitor) pic:  This is aluminum electrolytic capacitor: This post has been edited by coolblade: Dec 31 2007, 03:19 AM

Could you kindly let me know via PM to me, when you start bulking the F3 3800+ again? I think I should grab as soon as possible once you start the bulking.
