G.Skill F1-3200PHU2-2GBNS Question

[ToastMaster]

I'm looking to move up to 2GB of RAM, and was hoping to get some opinions on this:

I don't overclock, and the 2.5-3-3-6 seems like a good deal for the price and considering it's 2GB of ram. Most people seem to think of G.Skill pretty highly in terms of price/performance, so I'd like to get some input.

what do you do with your rig that calls for 2gb of ram though?

hehe, keep an eye in the task manager to see how much ram your normally use up, let us know how much you can use in a typical environment

well, I do game a lot, and whenenver I'm running DoD:S, etc., it tends to go to almost 100% memory usage (usually around 94-96%). Usually besides playing whatever game I'm playing, I have Opera open, Winamp, Trillian, irc, etc.

ah, definitly need ram then

i'd go with what you picked out, despite the small difference the timings will make. it's simply not that much more expensive, and if you're feeling adventurous, you might be able to run tighter timings than stock.
