Hi,
I am looking to buy some Ram for my computer I have got it down to 6 and was wondering if you could vote and/or give comments on what you think to them.

I am running:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P31-DS3L
CPU: Intel E2220 2.4GHz (Dual Core)
Graphic Card: Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4870 Toxic 1024MB GDDR5

DDR2 800MHz

Corsair Dominator DHX 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 PC2-6400C5 800MHz Dual Channel Kit

OCZ Titanium XTC 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 PC2-6400C4 800MHz Dual Channel Kit

Buffalo FireStix Heat 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 PC2-6400C4 800MHz Dual Channel Kit


DDR2 1066MHz

Buffalo FireStix Heat 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 PC2-8500C5 1066MHz Dual Channel Kit

Corsair XMS2 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 PC2-8500C5 1066MHz Dual Channel Kit

Corsair XMS2 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 PC2-8500C5 1066MHz Dual Channel Kit

My motherboard does support 1066MHz however by default it runs at 800MHz, to get it to run at 1066MHz I have to overclock it

To be honest there isnt much of a difference between 800 and 1066
