    No need for pc1066 pc6400 can overclock just aswell. As for the cpu, is it maily gaming ? If so a fast dual core will do, if you multi task alot then a quad will come in handy.

    i had adate extreme ram before it went belly up which is reason im upgrading (no idea why happened pc wasnt overclocked) its normal speed think was 1000 with timings of 5-5-5-15 so with pc3 6400 would performance be a bit below that even overclocked as is ddr3? The motherboard supports up to 1800 so was thinking with it being ddr3 and having higher timings would have to compensate with higher frequencies?
