I am looking for 1 Gig of the fastest ram compatible with this board
to overclock a 2.6 mh Pentium 4 with hyperthreading. Need advice
please.

I have the same board, with a 2.8 GHz P4. I currently have 2GB of OCZ
Dual-Channel 2x512MB DDR PC3200 CAS2 with copper heat spreader. My RAM
timings are 2-3-2-6, and all is stable, though I'm not really interested
in overclocking. (I recently paid $338.72 CAD, before tax, for 1GB, so
it's fairly well-priced for CAS2 RAM.)

You can probably get slightly better RAM timings (e.g., 2-2-2-5, I
think), from some specialized Mushkin RAM, but it's likely to be much
more expensive. (Plus, I'm not sure if the difference in end-user
performance would be too noticeable.)
