Hi people, i was wondering, would ram speed would you recommend for the athlon II x2 240(2.8ghz). I'm on a budget, so only 800mhz and 1066 mhz is acceptable. However, if i get 1066mhz, it a little more expensive. I could sue that little money to get a slightly better graphics card.

The diferente bewteen 800 and 1066 is not enough for pay the extra price. If you want, i recomend this DDR2 800MHz and, if you want "more" speed, overclock it to 1066MHz
