Memory - Man on a budget

It's ok, but you'd probably be stretching it to get to 3.3Ghz at 1:1 with any PC3200. PC4000 is what you'd need to be "guaranteed" the 250Mhz FSB needed to get that 2.6C close to 3.3Ghz at 1:1. You could save $60 and run at different ratio however, and it wouldn't be that big of a performance hit... your call.
 
That is lvl1 mushkin which is the CH5 chips if im not mistaken. I would highly reccommend the geil platinum series RAM pc4000. I am running my 2.6C at 3.3 w/ the rated timings (2.5/7/4/4) with no divider. Im sure I can take the RAM further than this but my CPU is at 1.65v right now and I dont want to jack it up any more than that.
 
that ram is pretty good for the price, im not sure about the price on that Geil Ram that was suggested but im guessing it would be out of ur price range?
