 Also, I believe that both kits use the same IC's.  Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 + Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme DFI Blood Iron P35-T2RL + Thermalright HR-05 IFX 2GB G.Skill 800MHz F2-6400PHU2-2GBHZ EVGA GeForce 8800GTS 320MB Silverstone Decathlon 650W Western Digital 250GB SATA II | |||||||||||||||

| I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal.
 | Re: Corsair Dominator Vs Crucial Ballistix Crucial's stuff quite literally kicks a**, and with the recent DDR2 price plummeting, the Ballistix line easily gets my recommendation. The DDR2-800 is damn good stuff too. Otherwise, look at mWave's selection to save a few bucks. Some links: 2GB Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800 - $94 shipped (after $30MIR, at mWave) 2GB Crucial Ballistix Tracers DDR2-800 - $127 shipped (mWave) 2GB Crucial Ballistix DDR2-1066 - $125 shipped (after $20MIR, at mWave) 2GB Crucial Ballistix Tracers DDR2-1066 - $153 shipped (mWave)  | ||||||||||||||

RAID, maybe you should get the non-Tracer ones to save some $$$. Same performance.
