Mushkin 1GB PC2-4200 (533) Dual Pack CL 3-2-2 @ OCTools.com

If you go DDR2, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t go for low latency memory. It’s just plain faster, and doesn’t cost that much either. These Mushkins are real nice.

“Overclocking wise, how can we complain? These Mushkin modules were able to take us up to DDR2-640MHz at tight timings of CL 3-2-2-6 and up to DDR2-750MHz at its most relaxed timing. That’s 217MHz over its rated speed. You get a headroom that is sure to handle even the most extreme overclock while running at the tightest possible timings. And with the cost of PC4200 modules getting cheaper by the day, the Mushkin 1GB PC2-4200 (533) Dual Pack is a great buy no matter where you look at it.”
