Corsair Memory TWINX XMS3200 2 x 256 MB PC3200 DDR RAM (twinx5123200c2)

Pros: Great performance at stock and overclocked speeds; low latencies=increased performance!
Cons: Didn't work in my MOBO in Dual Channel(MOBO problem), not much overhead for OC'ing.

Overall Anyone who has thought about building a high quality system or a system for tweaking and overclocking has heard of Corsair. Corsair is at the lead of the pack, trading top status with the likes of OCZ and Mushkin as new products ...

Pros: Awesome performance, competitive "generic" brands (Mushkin & Geil) don't come close to the Corsair's quality
Cons: A little expensive; especially with DDR2 now setting it's place as the next memory standard

If your looking for a great "middle-of-the-pack" memory solution, Corsair's TWINX PC3200C2 (and C2 Pro w/the LED lights) is an outstanding choice for the price. I had run 2 x 512MB sticks in my Asus A8V Deluxe mobo in dual-channel mode with the following latency settings with no problems or memory errors whatsoever: 2.5-3-3-5

My PC set-up:

AMD Athlon 64 3500+ (New Castle)
Asus A8V Deluxe mobo
2 GB Corsair TWINX PC3200C2 PRO
Nvidia GeForce 6800GT 256MB GDDR3 DRAM

I recently added the second gig of ram and am still able to run at the same latency settings. However, I did have to enable 2T Command Rate since all 4 banks are occupied. I think there is a work around for this using a freeware A64 tweak tool, but I am not in a hurry to fry my RAM. It runs great and it runs fast...so why bother trying to tweak a few percentage points from great RAM? Exactly! If it ain't broke, don't fix it :)
