New memorys, Mushkin!?

[Wipe]

Hello!

Which one should I choose?
I have GA-P35C-DS3R and E6850.

Redline - XP2-8000 DDR2 (2x2GB)
XP - XP2-6400 DDR2 (2x2GB)

There will be some moderate overclocking...

Both are great and will scale about the same speed-wise and voltage-wsie.... That is past 1066+ for sure for both. So it is up to you what color heatsink you want and price really. If you are in the US newegg has Killer deals on Both right now

The Redline are ~2$ more expensive than XP...

So pricing isn't an issue for me, either the color!

If it was me I would get the XP then, they are both the same really

Sent the order a few minutes ago... :D

You will like them for sure! They are very flexible, will do 1200+ with loose timings and will do 800 with Very tight timings

Can you help me with settings in BIOS when I get them?

Re: New memorys, Mushkin!?

Sure can! Just post back once you get them and let me know what speed you are running at and you full specs and I can help for sure.

Thanks a lot!

Since I exchanged the memorys I had no more BSOD's or other problems!
