| I am going to get some new ram to match with a bloodiron p35 series mobo. what is a good fit, I have $100 to spend on it. (2GB or 4GB) I want reliability over speed. |

| oh noes | That's ddr ram, so that won't work with you're mobo. You're going to want something with ddr2. Newegg.com - mushkin 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory might be good if you only want 2 gigs, but Newegg.com - mushkin 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory might be better if you want 4 gigs. (I like mushkin ram.) ![]() e8500@4ghz|Asus P5k-e WiFi| 4gb OCZ ReaperX|2x 3870's|1.3tb storage space|MSI tv tuner. |

| oh noes | ddr2 ram is pretty cheap right now, and both of those kits are about the right price. Not at the very bottom, but not at the top either. And I've had 4 gigs of this Newegg.com - mushkin 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory running at 1000mhz on an abit board no problem (wouldn't overclock at all on a gigabyte board though.). (granted, 2 gigs of that ran me over 220 bucks when I first got it, lol.) Mushkin is pretty solid stuff. ![]() e8500@4ghz|Asus P5k-e WiFi| 4gb OCZ ReaperX|2x 3870's|1.3tb storage space|MSI tv tuner. |
