what kind of ram for a 2600+ mobile system

[jamestime88]

im helping my friend build a computer. it will have 2600+ mobile, nf7-s, wd1600jb, 256-bit 9800se, zalman 7000alcu, etc......

i was just wondering what kind of ram to buy? theres pc3700 hyperX for $148 and pc4000 mushkin for $147 both are 3-4-4-8 that i were looking at. both are from newegg.

if anyone has suggestions on ram for under $150, i really cant think of what would be best.

You won't need anything over PC3200 (especially with the mobile's flexible multiplier). Buy the lower speed of ram with tighter timings.

dont mobiles get up to 240-250fsb though?

yea, u want lower timings on whatever ram u get. if u plan on running 1:1 then ull want at least some pc35/3700. timings are more important though. if u can get ur hands on some bh-5, then ull be in the money. running 1:1 at 240-250 with tight timings. oh BTW i dont think nf7 can go that high without mods, or am i wrong?
