800 vs 1066

I dont plan on overclocking whichever kind of memory I buy. So should I go with 800 or 1066? Here are my two options:

1066:

Would I notice a performance difference either way? My motherboard supports 1066/1333



Thanks.

You will probably not notice a difference. Besides the 800 you listed has awesome load LED's on it!

Hi,

Yes... you will notice the difference if you really are into games, or else not really. I'll take for the 1066 because it's cheaper and has more frequency.

Actually, instead of the 800 memory I originally posted, I would go with this one instead:

Like Zangetsu said, unless you a serious gamer, get the 800.

Please dont tell me its 1066/1333 FSB?

find some cheaper ddr 800, thats a ridiculous price for ram

107 is ridiculous for 2 gb of ddr800? what are you on?

I have had that exact Corsair 800 pair for several months now. It is very nice ram. I have it clocked to over 1066 and runs flawlessly. Of course you need to make sure the rest of your system can support it. Such as at least a 500W PSU. Good MB and everything else.

The difference between the two will be negligible in almost anything. Take into fact the difference between Pc3200 and Pc6400 in gaming benchmarks only shows difference in the magarin of error, and you'll see what I'm on about. Plus it's almost double for the 1066, Talk about a rip-off.
