 |
|
Hey all!
I purchased the 9npa+ultra board but, after a week and a half of looking
for good memory for it, I'm at a loss. Since the latest BIOS versions
support DDR500 for the rev. E Athlon 64s, I figured why not go with that
(1GB total for now, with possible upgrade later). However, I cannot
sort out all the choices, especially with regards to performance RAM
like the OCZ or Mushkin Redline that perform better at higher voltages.
What I am looking for is a good performing (not necessarily the best as
I'm not much of a gamer), stable RAM for the system. I figured I'd
utilize the dual channel capability by using a 2x512mb kit (any reason
not to???). I'll be running the board with a Venice core 3000+ and
Sapphire X800XL if it makes a difference (I know the chip does since the
memory controller is onboard...but mainly since it's a rev. E as stated
earlier).
I've tried doing my homework, but I keep getting mixed results. Please
someone set me straight!!!
Thanks all!
