New Build for college

[Fat.Clown]

the tracers which you have got are two sided so its fine i think it is the older yellow plain ballistix that are not double sided anymore.

Even Tracers are one sided now.

So if the ballistics are one sided then what is a good option? I want to buy this stuff monday.

G.Skill

 

[zmatt]

Which ones? Thats extremely vague.

 

[aspire]

GBHZ's are the ones to go for.

 

[Prototype]

are u talking about these they are quite expensive for 2GB

Newegg.com - G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory

These should be fine as well.

Plus because they have ╥ on them they will overclock 3.14159265358979323846… times further than similar memory!

Those pi sticks don't have any reviews. How about these?

EDIT:
the components guide also lists this:
Newegg.com - G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory
the price is almost too good to be true.

 

[aspire]

Thats the worst ddr2 800 memory g.skill basically makes.

Note the 5-5-5-15 timings.

The Pi sticks are much better.
