What's your price range...? As a general rule I tend to go with either Corsair or Mushkin...that's just me though. I find that mushkin tends to care more about their customers, but that's just my personal experience. Plus their memory (at least the Higher-end modules) are all backed with a lifetime warranty...

If going with Water cooling get the OCZ it has some kind of cooling system installed for running a water system.

Or else go with the cheapest one since they are all about the same.

Eh, hard to recommend any of those considering the price premium and even with water-cooled, heavy overclocking the fastest you'll run the RAM 1:1 is DDR2-1000, or PC2-8000. Reason being the E6850 will peak around 500Mhz FSB at 4Ghz clock speed; 500 x 2 = DDR2-1000. Either look at cheaper PC2-8500 or honestly most quality DDR2-800 will reach DDR2-1000 with relaxed timings.

Just looking at the OCZ PC2-8000 Titanium Alpha VX2. why on earth is this stuff 549 for 2GB. The timings are a BIT better but 300 dollars better?
