RAM is a bit pricey for what it is(proMOS) but other than that, it's not too bad.

 

could you recommend something better for that price ?

 

I didn't look very far ro very hard, but i did find this
http://overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-058-GL

same specs and most likely the same ICs too.

given that they have a warranty to 2.3V and 800mhz @ 4-4-4, they're probably micron D9(the good stuff)

I want to say d9GMH, but can't be certain.

 

thanks, would this one bebetter then yours http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct....rodid=MY-090-CR

 

his is cheaper... and about the same

 

but is it better?

 

If you buy it this week, these: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct....rodid=MY-108-CS
are quite cheap, and supposedly quite good. The one's xelink suggested are cheaper, but I've seen these recommended quite a bit.

 

I beleive the ones I use have better ICs, the reason why those are recommended a bit is because in the US, they are cheaper.
also, the 6400C4 uses proMOS, I can guarantee it.

 

overall its a good setup, you can prolly find sum stuff cheaper tho.

 

another thing, do you need SLI?

if not, cut to a cheaper board.

 

Was wondering about that too. If you are planning on using DX10 when everything has support etc. You could make do with a 8800 card now, or use a worse one. I dunno.
