Hi all, I was just finalizing my build, and I have a question about the different RAM that's out there. My mobo will be the Asus P5E Deluxe x48 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131317) but I don't know which RAM to buy.
Should I go with the DDR2 1066 or with 800 or even 667? What's the difference? Would it be noticeable, or should I just get whatevers cheapest? Thanks.

Hello and welcome to the forums mate :)

If u want to OC then i say go for a DDR2 800 RAM with 4-4-4-x or lower timings because the difference between DDR2 800 and 1066 isn't much and
DDR2 800 OCs very good too
