Just wanted to pass on some info about some new cheap RAM. I have recently been playing with an AMD64 3500+ and an MSI NEO2. It has been very picky about RAM. Hated my 3700PT Corsair. Would barely boot and wouldn't stay up. Tried my old Geil and it worked well, but allowed no OC with aggressive timings and high HTT mutilpliers. So I went looking for some new RAM. Was gonna get some OCZ low latentcy platinum, but I had been hearing a few people talk about Patriot RAM and how well it ran. Decided to give it a shot as I could always send it back for the OCZ.

Here's what I ordered : http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-220-006&depa=0

I have been beating it up since this morning and it is rock solid and runs fine at 210 bus @2-3-2-5-T1. All voltages are default (mem 2.55 and CPU 1.50). Memory timing is optimzed aggressive. Dynamic OC is disables. HTT is 5X and multiplier is 11X.

Now I realize this ain't real high yet, but for out of the box and stock voltages this is the best stuff I've seen. Especially for cheap.

Just letting you know this Patriot RAM may be good to use when the wallet is thin :thumbsup:
