Ok, then i'll just stick with a 2GB 800Mhz kit.

I'll probably end up getting the crucial kit, but am going to do a bit more research.

w000000000000000t!!

My Newegg cart is filled.... the total price (shipped):::::::::
(drum roll please)
$434.67

Cheap cheap cheap! I love it.

Just remember that RAM IC's can (and will) change very often throughout a product line. As time goes on, prices fluctuate and supply changes. The manufacturers don't really care what IC they use, as long as it meets their budget and performs the basic needs of the specified part.

Are you running some kind of elaborate RAID configuration with three 160GB HDD's?

Nope, one is for Windows, the second is for Mac OS Leopard and the third is just extra storage for Leopard.

I don't know if you've stepped into that arena yet but one option is to put aside 40GB of the 3rd hard drive and try a linux install for a tri-boot setup?







Thanks HL and Corsair!

Hey that would be cool!
So then I'd have "an overclocked, watercooled PC that runs Windows, Linux and OSX" that would be pretty cool!

But for now I have to get it built
