When you tried it, did it seem worth 2-times the cost? For example, 1300MHz ram is being over-clocked to 2000MHz, and then sold with an O.C. label on it for about twice the price. > extra heat, increased chance of instability, and extra cooling that may be > required. > If those things sound like bad things to you (as they do me) then overclocked > memory is probably not worth it. Yes, these things seem questionable to me too. The thing is, all these hardware vendors are selling the ram over-clocked at the time of purchase. If the manufacturers and vendors are promoting over-clocked hardware, then is it less risky? I'm leaning towards the regular lower speed ram, just curious what the others were doing. -- Greg Donald http://destiney.com/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NLUG" group.
