corsair ram + dfi = problems

[bloodthirst]

ive been hearing that amd dfi motherboards + corsair ram is not good, keep in mind im talking about amd based motherboards here rather than the intel based. is this true

[Eguy]

yes its true, DFI is good with GEIL, OCZ and some others but not Corsiar.. ASUS is only good with Corsiar

Yep Eguys right. But don't forget GSkillz TCCD

[NickS]

Yeah.

DFI and Corsair, Kingston don't work well. Kingston has about a 50% failure rate, so....

Good stuffs for that board are...

Any BH-5 (besides corsair, kingston), CH-5 (besides corsair, kingston), Any Samsung Chip like TCCC, TCC5, TCCD, etc (besides corsair, kingston) etc.

So look into some Mushkin {any} (Redlines), G.Skill's, GeIL's, PDP has an okay success rate, they're good memories, PQI isn't too bad, if you get their higher-end stuff. OCZ is good ram too, but I think you're paying for the brand & the tacky heatspreader tbh.

Says Nick with his GEIL Golden Dragon!!

OCZ is great RAM and is actually pretty damn good value. The OCZ Gold is only around $90-$100 for a 1gb kit!!

[NickS]

$110-$120

If your talking about amd 64's, its much more dependant on the cpu than the board...seeing as the memory controller is integrated into the CPU.
