Another RAM question.

Bloody **** you can!

but is it any better? Like should I still get ddr400 pc 3200. Or is it alot better/faster memory?

O and, valueram doesnt have heat spreader is that bad? Dunno what that means.

 

[Mentali$T]

Of course its better its a lot faster. Not sure about the heat spreader thing.

It's just a heatsink for your RAM bascially.

Depends on what you're going to be doing with the computer, but I don't know how effective they are.

RAM with timings higher than DDR400 will run on a board that only supports DDR400 it will just run it at DDR400 speeds, anything over PC3200 is so when you overclock you can also overclock the RAM higher and dont need a memory divider.

Dont quote me on this im not sure if it's right i just remember hearing that anything over DDR400 is better for overclocking.

ah ok, well so is it safe to use valueram, has no heat spreader, and id play games on it 24/7.

 

[gamer64amd]

27/7? That's a lot of gaming lol

 

[xXx-Tricky-xXx]

well, 24/7 that im on the pc, which is when im not at school.

I dont want valueram dying cuz it overheats like my other ram on other pc did.

 

[MrZucchiniHead]

Valueram is fine unless your overclocking, and if you do overclock you wnt get very far without a memory divider which will slow your RAM down.

And if it starts heating up just buy a copper heatsink for your RAM, the most expensize one is only $15.

looks like OCZ ram has a rebate again im getting it. Maybe ill learn how to overclock ram and tell what the timings are and stuff.
