I need help choosing 2gb of DDR2 RAM from this site www.centrecom.com.au
Just look for the lowest timing.
Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it
Some of the ram on that site doesnt display the timing specs and i tried googling it but cant find any specs.

I found this Corsair DDR2 2GB PC-5300 (1GBx2) Value Select (VS2GBKIT667D2) its latency 5-5-5-15-2T is this anygood?
5-5-5-15-2T doesn't seem very fast, but I think it depends on your motherboard what latency you should choose. Corsair C4 and C3 are supposed to be good.
Wow it is around 4/3 ths the price on newegg, but it is now in au...B00MH3ADSH0T wrote:

It looks more because its in $au thats the best i can find on www.centrecom.com.au for $337au unless someone can find a 4-4-4-12 or faster on that site for around the same. +1 for help.

Link doesn't work, and you didn't really give me much information. I just picked out ram in your budget with the fasted timings.
i fixed the link
i guess what im saying is a pc-5300 at 677mhz and 5-5-5-15 better then pc-4200 533 mhz at 4-4-4-12?
.
anyone..
Not really. G.skill ram are cheaper though and faster...B00MH3ADSH0T wrote:

so the fact that one is 677mhz and the other 533mhz makes no differnce and the pc4200 and 5300 whats the differnce between that?
The core speeds are far more important than the timing speed or CL's.
You will see little difference with Cas latencys unless you have a really good machine, and only then would you see minimal differences.
so 677 = pc5300 > 533 = pc4200

If you want to understand Cl's and timing and all that shit,

No problem, have fun with 2 gigs, I just 2 some more and my beast boots up in less than 10 seconds from a cold boot.
Karma?
