Tibul Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 when i finnally start buying the parts for my new machine i think ill get some new RAM for it anybody got some suggestions on some really good RAM for Overclocking. thanks in advance Link to post Share on other sites
dark Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 what did you want.. tight timings.... or good fsb range? for tight timings.. i would say a gig of the ocz VX4000 chips... i got 250fsb. @1.5-2-2-1 out of them... for fsb range.. the gskill ram or ocz pc4800 plat's... thats my opinions anyways...

bigchrome Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 (edited) Get some ram from OCZ, someone will advise you to which model and revision I am sure. I think people are making noise about the pc4000 chips too. Edit: you beat me to it. Edited July 9, 2005 by bigchrome Link to post Share on other sites
dark Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 (edited) sorry.. just thought i had to get in there.. as ive had both sets... personally the VX4000 are good, unless you got a venice core, or sandiego.. where fsb will help you get the overclock out of them EDIT: have a look at this post i made... had serious problems with the bios in the end... but still got the score's http://pcpitstop.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=93013 Edited July 9, 2005 by dark Link to post Share on other sites
caintry_boy Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 Awhile back a couple of the guys here were running this GSkill: LA. Recently had this one recommended to me as being a speed burner at [email protected] and 267HTT: GBGH. Also heard good things about these: #1 and #2. Link to post Share on other sites
flewpastu Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 i hit almost 250fsb ( 247mhz ) 1:1 with DDR400 Ballistix @ cas 2.0 2-2-8 ... i would have gone further but i think CPU cooling was holding me back :beer: Link to post Share on other sites
AthlonGTX Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 i hit almost 250fsb ( 247mhz ) 1:1 with DDR400 Ballistix @ cas 2.0 2-2-8 ... i would have gone further but i think CPU cooling was holding me back :beer: you've really got me eyeing that ram, Flew Link to post Share on other sites
flewpastu Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 and it's a lot cheaper lately too NewEgg Ballistix DDR400 and i can say that at stock FSB this Ram gave almost a 1000pt increase in AM3 Link to post Share on other sites

Tibul Posted July 9, 2005 Author Share Posted July 9, 2005 anybody tryed the OCZ titanium series know if its any good? Link to post Share on other sites
Intratech Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Titanium series is not aimed at the overclocking crowd..rather it's marketed as being for the "mission critical" market. Link to post Share on other sites
Lou Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Good value here this stuff will run DDR 600. OCZ Platnium Rev 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Tibul Posted July 10, 2005 Author Share Posted July 10, 2005 Titanium series is not aimed at the overclocking crowd..rather it's marketed as being for the "mission critical" market. thanks for the info intratech, so if i go with OCZ im looking more at the platinum or gold series then for OC'ing?

Intratech Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Correct, the Platinum series especially aimed at the overclocking crowd. I do like the PC3200 Platinum rev.2 modules. Link to post Share on other sites
dark Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 the plats are designed for overclocking, but also so are the gold series... plats are better with higher fsb... where as the golds are good with timings and latencies... i might be mistaken.. but thats how i find them Link to post Share on other sites
shogan191 Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 If you guys were looking for 305 to 310 fsb what would you get? Link to post Share on other sites
