looking to get 2x4gb ram for a new amd pc build.
this is the motherboard i'm getting, the asus m4a89td pro:

with a phenom ii x6 1055t thuban cpu:

so my question is, what clock speed should i aim for? it seems that the most 2 practical choices are 1333mhz or 1600mhz, though i cant tell if the jump to 1600mhz is worth the extra coin. im willing spend up to 250$, though i'd prefer closer to 200.
and say i were to go with 1333mhz, i've also noticed that non-ECC boards appear to be somewhat cheaper than the equivalent with ECC. is ECC worth it? and between the timings 9-9-9-20 and 9-9-9-24, is there any big dif?
so guys if you have any recommendations that would be awesome! there is just so many choices and i can't tell the difference between them, if i had to choose i would just buy one based off reviews pretty much.
