Hi all.

Im bulding a system and just realized how much money you can spend on memory alone.
Is it worth it or shall i go for volume instead?

Can you recomend me som good cheap memory for a 939 system to be paired w. an opteron 14x or 165?

If your planning on overclocking then get some good low latency, high speed ram that will do 300 mhz(actual speed) or more.
If your not overclocking then normal pc3200 will do.

I have used corsair and crucial value ram and havent had any problems with it. I dont overclock so dont need the high end ram.
2 gigs is getting close to the normal now.
Its best to use 2 sticks total so go with 2x512 or 2x1 gig sticks for dual channel support.
