milotty Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Hi guys,first time user,so forgive me if question has been asked many times before.I want to upgrade my memory for 8500, 4GB kit,my mobo manual states it can use DDR2 1066 at 1.8v,could you advise on what kits to buy.Mobo is Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3,current memory is Corsair Twin2X2048-6400G.Have used the memory tool but still a little confused. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted October 7, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted October 7, 2009 I am sorry but we do not offer DDR1066 at 1.8 Volts and as far a s I know any DDR1066 memory on the market will require a higher Voltage. If you want to over clock your system I would replace what you have now with one set of TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF for best performance but you will need to e able to set the memory Voltage to 2.1 Volts.

milotty Posted October 8, 2009 Author Share Posted October 8, 2009 Hi,Ram Guy,thanks for quick response,I have checked mobo manual and bios and there is the facility to increase memory voltage,so I will go ahead and purchase the modules that you recommended.

milotty Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 RamGuy,I see that the Twin2x4096-8500C5DF has a fan,are these easy to install and do you get a diagram etc with them,if I decide not to go with these modules can you recommend another module without fan. Cheers, Milotty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
