Hey guys, I'm building my first rig and have searched for hours and can't get a straight answer. What RAM should I get for this setup?
Mobo - Asus P5NSLI
GPU - EVGA GeForce 7900GT
CPU - E6400
I hear this board is very picky about its RAM. I want 2 GBs and I plan on doing some moderate overclocking. My budget, however, is only about $150 give or take a bit for the memory. Nonetheless, I seem to be able to find at least one pair in about every range for this amount -- DDR2 - 667 (PC2 5300 and 5400) as well as some cheap DDR2 - 800. I don't want to blow this cash on some sticks that are just going to poo on my board or waste any overclocking efforts.
I really appreciate any help guys.
