Maziar Champion Jul 20, 2007 21,707 1 52,960 Jul 18, 2008 #2 Hello and welcome to the forums mate i say go for a DDR2 800 RAM with 4-4-4-x or lower timings because the difference between DDR2 800 and 1066 isn't much and DDR2 800 OCs very good too. Also REAPER isn't only DDR2 1066,it has DDR2 800 models too(i have them )

Zorg Splendid May 31, 2004 6,732 0 25,790 Jul 18, 2008 #5 Then DDR2 800 is more than enough, later you can do some mild OCing if you get interested in it. I'm assuming were talking about an Intel rig here.
