Just get the OCZ Gold 2x2Gb DDR2 800Mhz, 10 bucks per gig and that's really all you need for gaming and everyday use. If you're not worried about squeezing every little bit of power out of your RAM, this will suit you just fine.

Edit: Or maybe you just want to wait for a whole new system instead of upgrading RAM.
I don't want to get new rig yet.

Looking more @ that 1066 now, like Blizzie said, it should last me longer.

Also.. +rep for all

The 1066 will give you more flexibility to change system settings in the future.

Will get 64bit Vista.

Yes, i cant buy from newegg, but sending the links help me find the same product from another shop.

Also.. on the A-datas, the Over Clock Extreme Edition is just for getting sales? Or will these overclock bit more too?

( still undecided )
Uhhhh!! just notice you got E2140, You either just love it or hate it

If you are planning on Overclocking more than 2.8Ghz then you WILL need a 1066Mhz ram. Im talking from experience here, when i had a 800Mhz ram i tryed and tryed sooooo much no matter what i do i cannot get it over 2.8Ghz... So i tryed getting a 1066Mhz ram, Once i got it i got my CPU to run at 3.2Ghz very easily

Remember that vista naturally uses more ram, and because its 64bit it will use even more. Dunno how 64bit uses more, but it does.

Yes i know, a 1000Watt PSU is overkill. But you have to ask yourself, what if?

If your awesome, copy and paste this into your signature.

Out of all the suggestions, I would recommend NOT buying the Crucial sticks. Crucial's DDR2 has gone down hill in the past year and a half. They don't use the good Micron chips anymore. They still use Micron, but they are cheap modules that seem to have a short life and don't OC worth a crap. I had to personally RMA 4 pairs of the newer modules last year.


Everybody seems to be raving about the Blades though.
