E6600 users, what are you using for RAM?

:eek:

what DDR2 speed are you all using? DDR2 5400?

i'm trying to find some ram for an Asus P5W DH Deluxe, (need this board for crossfire, and to drop a quadcore in later, unless someone can suggest another) 2GB....

suggestions? :confused:
 
I'm running corsair XMS2 pro 6400 4-4-4-12 2 x 1gb. Played very nice with my P5W Dh dlx, running 1:1 at the moment. The sticks are not the best overclockers however, I cant get these things past 820mhz for the life of me, not to mention they were pretty pricey. I think there are bettter/cheaper options out there though, just my 2 cents.
 
CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500)

Ive got a 6600 running at 3.4.
 
G Skill F2-6400PHU1-1GBHZ DDR2 800. Glad i got them when they was way cheaper.:)
 
Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800 PC2 6400 at 4-4-4-12

I haven't over clocked my processor yet though, just built the computer today
 
Corsair Dominator TWIN2X2048-6400C4D XMS 2 (2x1GB) DDR2 800MHz PC6400.

Running at 4-4-4-8 timings.

I only have it at 666 mhz on the FSB though, enough to let me hit my 3.0 ghz goal.
 
Corsair XMS2 DDR2-800 PC2 6400 2x 1GB RAM, 5-5-5-12. They run at 4-4-4-12 on the stock voltages. I think these are a popular pair because they're Corsair's cheapest 2x 1GB set of DDR2-800 RAM on NewEgg. Supposedly they don't overclock well, though. I got mine for $200, so I'm happy, but the price keeps going up.
 
OCZ Gold GX XTC 5400 2GB (2x1)
Currently running them at 740 with 4-4-4-12 settings.
I have taken them higher at 5-5-5-15 settings, did not find their limit.
 
Hocus pocus, i had a pair of 512 OCZ ddr2 6400 gold sticks and they were awesome. The only fault that i found was that it took some work to get them to play nice with some motherboards, asus especially. I was running them @ 892mhz with a p4 660. OCZ seem unpopular though, strange..
 
Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800 PC2-6400 4-4-4-12.

Runs great, i can get some really high overclocks.
 
I use 2GBs of Patriot PC6400 on my 680i setup and it's strolling right along @ 3.5GHz on air cooling.
 
I am running 2 GB (2x1GB) sticks of Corsair Dominator Ram.

DDR2 800 Cas 4-4-4

Setup is Running E6600 @ 3.6GHz (400x9) FSB 1600MHz on Air Zalman CU9700

Ram is running at 800MHz Even, Cas 4-4-4-10

I havent tried to push it any futher
 
I have an e6600 on an ASUS P5N-E SLI using Corsair XMS 6400C4 at 800 Hz.

The 6600 is currently at 3.2Ghz but Ive just begun to play with it.:D

Does anyone know if there is one manufacturer that has better warranty/rma service than the other?

G.Skill
Patriot
Corsair
Crucial
OCZ
 
i have a asus dh delux and using corsair pc5400c4xmspro rated at 667. i have my memory @375. fsb @ 1501. ratio 1:1. processor is e6400 running at 3.0. i would push it higher but that's okay for now. i know there is alot more room left.
 
infin@, yes I have been very pleased with my OCZ sticks. At the time I bought them, people did seem to be down on OCZ for C2D, but for the most part that seemed to be related to the DDR2-800 stuff. I actually wanted to pick up some Patriot mem, but it was sold out at that time and the OCZ had a rebate which made it slightly cheaper than the Patriot, so I took a chance. No regrets.

Anyone? The prices on all of this RAM is pretty close so I'm looking for one of these manufacturers to have a good replacement policy/good warranty if a stick does fail such as cross shipping, not waiting a week for your RMA to be processed etc....
