Solve : best ram for asus p5q-vm?

Answer»

any opinions on the best ram (meaning what will have system performance the best, no gaming)
with an ASUS p5q-vm motherboard and core 2 quad q9400 processor.....
board supports PC2-5300, PC2-6400 and PC2-8500I have been USING and recommending OCZ RAM for over a year now...but you can't go wrong with Crucial either...If you travel to http://www.crucial.com/ you can see the crucial memory advisor tool, try using that.Quote from: kuszmania9999 on March 22, 2009, 04:51:30 AM

If you travel to http://www.crucial.com/ you can see the crucial memory advisor tool, try using that.

I believe he is looking for recommendations on what brand to get...Kingston user here. Both Crucial and Kingston have memory selector tools to help you choose the RIGHT memory. If you visit Kingston and find memory for your computer, you might then visit newegg.com and see whether they have it; they often have Kingston memory and may have a lower price than buying directly from kingston.com.thanks everyone..... i know the majopr brands to stick to , and im thinking of getting corsair......but the real question is it can use PC2 8500 or 6400........if i go with the 8500 will that be a faster system than 6400It's hard to see the difference between the 2...thanks again!but thinking more on that, then why are there the different kinds anyway?RAM speed increases are incremental...just like bigger faster hard DRIVES CPU's and other components.
The only time i actually saw a difference was going fromm 800mhz to 1066.
