I am trying to pick 2GB of memory sticks to go with an E6600 and an Asus P5W DH.
As far as possible, I don't want to pay too much over $200, but I am rather at loss with memory specs.
Should I go for DDR2 800, 900, 1000 or 1066? What's the difference?
Apparently the latency numbers are not that important for the E6600, but what about the PC2 types?
Should I go for a 6400, 7200 or 8000? Or just pick the one that fits my budget because there won't be much of a difference?
It's quite unlikely that I will overclock anything, least of all memory, so I am counting on what the sticks can provide from the start.
