Corsair TwinX 1gb pc3200

hey i was wanting to upgrade my ram
i have a stick of A-Data 512bm DDR400

is this corsair ram anygood, i have found this ram at very cheap prices,
i also want to be able to overclock at a stable setting. thanks

 

I donno about the TwinX stiff... But what speeds does your Adata ram run ? I assume your going for another 512 stick and run the Adata. Here is a good place to start when looking for ram to overclock.

 

The twinx stuff is merely matched ram. Do you have a model number?

 

yes the model is

CORSAIR XMS 1GB TWINX-3200XL DDR, Xtra-Low latency (2-2-2-5), Silver Heat Spreader

heres a link if u like

i am not sure of speeds my A-data is pushing i tend not to play with the frequency of the ram because i dont know enough about it, i have hung my system many times playing with it resulting in having to pull the system battery. thanks for u help guyz

 

i want either a 1gb stick or run 2x 512mb sticks in dual channel

 

would the system select ram be much different than this TwinX ram?

 

If your going all out on ram. Look here go for samsung TCCD or winbond BH-5/BH-6. An Ebay search on eather will give you a nice start....

TCCD: "usually do 2-2-2 @ 200; 2-3-3 up to 230; 2,5-3-3 up to 265; 2,5-4-4 up to 275 New chips love voltage (more than 3,1 with active cooling) and go 250+ @ 2-2-2"

BH-5/BH-6: "low latency chips, love voltage (datasheet says 3.6v, but often the pcb dont like that), runs usually 240 - 255Mhz with 2-2-2-X @ 2.9 - 3.4v, 256MB sticks will overclock better than 512MB"
