Default Need help chosing ram that right for my pc.

I want something that is atleast 1066mhz or ram that can overclock pretty well. So I was looking at these two manufacturers G-skill, and Mushkin.

For G-skill:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231246 (G-skill Pi) i heard decent things from them

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231166 or these

Next were mushkin:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820146785 Im not sure if these are good but I thought I would ask ocn.

My next question is should I invest in the speed? Like 1200mhz?? Or should I just leave it at 1066. Thanks in advance

I've had good experiences with GSkill. But watch out with the Pi kit because it may cause issues with large heatsinks.

Pi 1100.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231194
$100, & way better than pretty much everything else < $100

Low Voltage Tridents 1066.
newegg reviews are bad though, so these are a gamble.
I'd stick with 1100 Pi if you don't like gambling.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231194

Ripjaws 1200
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231283

Those three kits are the ones i'd look at with maximum OCing in mind.

The Mushkin you linked to is also good; it's amongst the best binned stuff Mushkin has.
