Default OCZ Platinum Question
Is this a good kit for the money? I'm planning on installing x64 Vista soon, so I decided to pick up 4GB. This kit is incredibly cheap, just wondering how the quality is on it? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227280

System: That's what she said.

its very good ram. i have the 1066 versions running at 800mhz at 4-4-4-9 1T at 1.8 voltage or they will do 1136 at 2.1 at 5-5-5-13 2T so i imagine the 1000mhz will do the same

I'm deciding either on the G.Skill 4GB set, or the OCZ Plat. Set. This OCZ is $60 cheaper.

Would the PC8000 1000mhz ram work on my mobo?

It should have no problem working, but @ 800MHz, so to reach 1GHz you'll have to "overclock".
