    Hey guys... so with the new comp i'm building i'm going with this mobo..
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128082

    im just unsure if i get PC10600 or PC10666 under the DDR3 1333.... would it make a difference?

    Also....

    For now, would it be better to go with 4 gigs of DDR2 like this
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231166

    or 2 gigs of DDR3 like this
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145183


    what would run faster since both are about the same price?

    I would go with DDR2 due to the price being a lot better.

    WHich OS will you be using?
    XP and Vista 32 bit can only use about 3.2 gigs of ram.
    64 bit can use all 4 gigs.
