New RAM

Seeing as scout is sending me one of his mobo's i'm going to do a system rehaul
I was just questioning the quality and reliability of this kingston 2gb kit:

would that be a good choice?

I would not buy from that seller because he is so new. He only has 15 ratings.

linkin93 · 09-24-2009, 04:40 PM

Every seller has to start somewhere but if you want to find a new one that's your call.

I don't know what motherboard you are getting but that DDR2 set you linked or similar ones should be fine.

Scout is shipping me his Asus P5N-E motherboard, so i'll be getting a qaud and some new ram to go with my 4850
