Default What DDR2 RAM should i get with a Phenom II X3 Tri Core 720 BE

I'm about to order a rig, but i don't know which would be the best RAM to get.
  • Power saving
  • 4GB+
  • Bang for Buck; will i notice a difference getting faster timings or speed or both?
  • Just for games

Buying it from http://www.overclockers.co.uk/ can someone pick some DDR2 RAM which would be the best choice?

Thanks

THIS one has some good timings, also a good price.

ANOTHER good set that runs at a lower Voltage.

I'd say go for the OCZ Blade. I've heard great things about that RAM.

Yea the OCZ would be my first choice, but it does require higher voltage, so if he didnt want the 2.1V, he could get the kingston and settle for the less V. But IMO it wont matter, I would go with the OCZ.
