I'm getting ready to build a new system using an Athlon 2500+ Mobile on an ASUS A7N8X-UAY board. Won't do *much* OCing, but want to at least run this mobile 2500 at desktop 2500 stock voltage. The final decision becomes RAM. Had I known back in January that the price of RAM was going to go through the roof, I would have stocked up then, but now I'm looking at whatever cheap solution I can find. Hence, when I found a stick of Kingston ValueRAM PC3200 512 locally for $100, I figured it might be a good idea. But I'm also EXTREMELY anal about performance/stability. I orignally was going to go with OCZ 512 PC3200, costing about CDN$200 locally, but since I'm not doing that much in regards to OCing (and will probably only run the FSB at 200Mhz anyways), I'm thinking that ValueRAM might be all I need.
Anyone have any suggestions or opinions about ValueRAM or whether I should even consider it in this new system?
