My current RAM is dying and I need a new one, I'm thinking of going the same way (sig) but there might be better... My goal is to get 300+ stable (current one can do 300 half stable)
I've looked around the reviews in Newegg for some OCZs but people didn't say what their OC was, and if they did it was only around 250
 
Rather than spend the cash on one gig of overclocking RAM I'd recommend grabbing a good 2GB set. It may cost you a little bit in SuperPi, but you'll have much better all-around performance.
 
I think that your best bet would be to find some of the 0ld sk00l TCCD from G.skill. gonna have to get it used off of forums tho since it is EOL and has been for sometime.

I also hear that 2g overclocks worse than 1g. And I'm not really playing any intensive games (CS:S and CoD2 mostly..)

Well, I've got an official comparison of 1gb vs 2gb that says different:

(take a look at page 10)

i think its possible the only reason 2X 512mb sticks overclocks better is because they produce less heat, cuz there are less chips.
