Computer build – pt 4 – the ram

Piece number 3 rolled in today…2 GB of RAM. Since I’m looking forward to using an Athlon X2 processor I opted for 2 sticks of DDR 400.

These XMS sticks aren’t the very top of the Corsair line (they don’t have any LEDs), but they’re close considering the price. They’re spec’ed to run at 2-3-3-6 timings, which is pretty good for $176. They should be pretty tolerant of overclooking, too (though I might have to relax the timing a bit).

Purchased from newegg.com.
