Wait for 800 to arrive (I am on loaned ram have to return it)
Get CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) from US
or
Get the 2x1gb cellshock 1000 DDR2 from US
or
2x 1gb crucial ballistix DDR2-1000
which works better as I need to overclock & the comp will do graphic editing mostly apart from usual surfing & music in the background.
in reference to another thread here CAS latency of the ram which one should I buy? |
Yes it is possible to reach 800. I was touching 740 when I had those, but nothing is garunteed. you will be able to OC your C2D to max 2.8 if you are successful to OC you ram to 800 Mhz.
If you want to get it from US get a 2x1gb cellshock 1000 DDR2.
Waiting for 800mhz could also be an option if you know a dealer who can give you some kind of assurance about the RAM availability.
