i am builting a new system like this:

CPU: C2D E6600
RAM: Supertalent 2GB (1GB x 2) DDR2 800 CL 5-5-5-15
GPU: NVIDIA GEFORCE 7900GT 512MB
PSU: THERMALTAKE W0101 TR2 POWER 550W
HDD: SAMSUNG HD401LJ 400GB SATA2

and I'd like to ask u if the ram i choose is good?
I choose this one because it is about 65€ cheaper than Corsair TWIN2X2048-6400 XMS2-6400 2048MB 5-5-5-12 (supertalent 279€- corsair 342€)

So is this a good buy or should i better give those extra money for corsair?

(I m from greece and 1€ is about 1,3$)

In common terms what wusy meant is that theyre using the same Micron chips, meaning theyll deliver almost (for better or worse) the same performance.
If you wont be overclocking much youll be safe with CL5, but if youre planning on to you better pick some CL4 that will be able to overclock to DDR2 ~1000.
