hey again about the ram, alright this is what im thinking

im either gonna get the OCZ ddr400 pc3200 1024 mb performance series
OR
the Kingston Dual Channel 1024 mb...

Which is better? im leaning towards the OCZ because of the better timing, but kingston because of the dual channel, you're suggestions are much appreciated :tazz:

They dont really do anything but hide what kind of chips the manufacturer is using.

If you ever notice the sticker on there says (if removed it voids the warranty) and they place it right on one of the clips that holds the heatspeader on :tazz:


They think there slick but im onto them :)
