    Ready to upgrade memory to (2) 1 GB DDR Modules - suggestions?

    I have the ASUS A8N-SLI Premium NF4 and am looking to upgrade to 2 GB of RAM. Any suggestions as to what works well with this card? I will be overclocking and I will spend some money if need be.

    Thanks!

    Well, I just ordered from New Egg, a pair of Crucial Ballistix Tracer, because they don't have the 2 GB kit, just 1 GB modules. And a 2 Raptor 150 GB for RAID 0. So this will eliminate the slow bottleneck in my machine with 2 GB and 2 fast drives. Also this mem really overclocks, just look in the forum. But one recomendation, never go beyond 2.8 V or this mem will day after a couple of weeks. Lots of people having the same issue, after they find this.

    Just put this 2GB kit into my latest build. Works very well with my Asus A8V-Deluxe. Really decent settings as well... 2-3-2-5

    The Asus QVL list for that mobo shows:

    Kingston KVR400X64C3A/1G
    Corsair TWINX2048-3200C2
    Transcend TS128MLD64V4J

    These are just the 1 GB sticks that Asus tested that worked with your mobo

    Well I have testing this weeking from friday this new 2 GB KIT. This is are the numbers I can get with different timings at different fsb. I run memtest 86+ test 5 and test 8 at least twice every 3 fsb increments. At least it will give you and idea. Anyway I can get very high fsb >290 because my core is an old one, 0.13, so new 90nm will work even better. All timings are at 1T command, or CPC enable, with 2,7V.
