why would he want SLI ready memory for a motherboard that doesnt even support SLI?

...and SLI ready memory cant do DDR2-1000 @ 4-4-4-12

this is the ram you want:

and dont go for the 680i like impakt says, the P35 chipset is a MUCH better overclocker, so keep that P5K motherboard that you picked out

Why would you pay so much for that ram when you can get practically the same thing for $100 less?

Or you can get these, they can overclock to PC2 8500 speeds with ease:

thats not the same ram. you obviously dont know how well HZ's overclock

why would the price be higher?

Hes getting a E6750, he wont need ram speeds above 1066mhz. Paying $130+ is pointless when you can get the same thing for $100. Even not running in 1-1 anything over 1066mhz wont make much of a difference, and I doubt the HZ's will go higher then that anyways, (Maybe a bit above PC2 8800 1100mhz if you get a nice set.) although they probably are able to get that high easier. Either way 900mhz will be fine unless hes planing on going over like 3.8ghz, which he wont be even coming close to doing with that cooler. If you have read some articles about high end ram you would have realized that high end ram is quite pointless since current CPU formulas are not demanding enough to take full advantage of the extra speed.

alot of people have gotten DDR2-1000 @ 4-4-4-12 with HZ's

oh and it doesnt mean he has to reach 1000, it just means he can lower his multi and go over 400 fsb and still have tight 4-4-4-12 timings

Ferσή · « **Reply #20 on:** November 13, 2007, 08:08:42 PM »

Why would he need to lower his multiplier? What are the benefits of running lower then 8? 400x7 =2.8GHz and I hardly call that a worthy over clock. But with that shitty cooler I doubt hes going to reach much higher then that anyways. Hes got some open options as for RAM I guess. I don't think the one he picked out is that bad anyways. SLI mode will only give a benefit on a SLI mobo, so your basically paying extra for a feature you cant use, but if your getting a good deal its not going to hurt you if your using a motherboard that does not support SLI right?

brandon6199 · « **Reply #21 on:** November 13, 2007, 09:32:43 PM »

if he lowers his multi he can run his ram at fast speeds at a 1:1 ratio and still mantain 4-4-4-12 timings

how is that a bad thing professor cory?

and the P35 chipset is known to easily break 500 fsb, so 500x7=3.5ghz, or 500x8=4.0ghz

Ferσή · « **Reply #22 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:18:08 AM »

Yeah, I am sure he will be reaching 4.0ghz with that cooler. Don't waste your money, and dont listen to brandon. Go with some decent $80-100 ram from a brand on your QVL of your mobo. If you want to reach 4.0ghz I doubt its going to be with that cooler. But you wont need more then 960mhz if you want to break 3.8 which is what most E6750 max out on. You need to be really lucky to even get 4.0ghz. But then again this is all hypothetical and I doubt your going to do some serious over clocking.

brandon6199 · « **Reply #23 on:** November 14, 2007, 12:23:31 AM »

he doesnt need to hit 4.0ghz

for example, im running 450x7=3.15ghz, and my ram is at DDR2-900 @ 4-4-4-12

the point is the higher ram speeds he can have the faster his pc will be, and he can keep his tight 4-4-4-12 timings

If you have read anything about ram, ram speed don't do shit compared to CPU speed. There no point in spending a fuck load of money on ram. DDR3 at 2GHz doesn't even offer a near 8% increase in performance. Its a waste of money. He could take the extra money he would save by getting cheaper ram and invest in a Q6700 or 6600. But if you look at his post you can obviously tell he is on a budget.

HZ's > NQ's

my work here is complete.

shat bat
BTW nice job editing out that part where you called me a stupid fuck, but yet it remains in my quote. but yeah its a good idea to edit your bad stuff before you report someone right?

Aries · « **Reply #29 on:** November 14, 2007, 05:12:53 AM »

Your both truely sad for arguing about such things. Totally ignoring what Dan was even talking about in the first place.

Newegg is american, he cant get that.
