DDR3
What is a better option for me, DDR3 1066 with CAS 7 7 7 18, or DDR3 1333 @ 9 9 9 24. The mobo will support both of them and they are for the i7

Re: DDR3
3gb to get it up and going.But, is there anything out yet that needs more than 3? I remember when I was on the forums more about 10 months ago 2gb with a 512 card was sufficient for anything. I'm definitely going to jack it up some more after I get it going. Like maybe another 6gb afterwards when I get 64bit vista.
Speaking of that, I purchased 32bit vista premium. Anyone know if windows is understanding on upgrading you to the 64 bit for little cost? Or do i have to scrap it up as a screw up? Or another thing think if I got the 64bit my serial would work? lol
(Back to the topic) What I kinda figured was the ram was the same, just when they loosened the timings it allowed it to run at a higher speed.

Re: DDR3
IDK if any 32bit editions come with a 64bit disc but all versions of windows vista use the same key for 32bit or 64bit. So if your version only comes with a 32bit disc then your only chore would be to track down a 64bit disc (winkwink) and you can have 64bit using your 32bit key.

AWESOME, haha, I didn't know that and thanks again. I've actually wondered if that would work for a while, but never tried it.
