Buffalo Firestix

[NightSonic19]

What's so special about them? I was thinking of getting them for my next build. a Core 2 Build with an E6600 and P5B Deluxe Mobo.
Would they be better than getting Crucial Ballistix?
They have 4-4-4-12 timings@ DDR2 800 for $275.

There is nothing special about them, they are just peformance memory. Not sure what chips they use but people seem to be getting good overclocks with them. There's nothing special about Ballistix either. In fact Ballistix is not that good.

Will you be overclocking? If not, then there is no point in getting one particular brand of memory over another, just get the cheapest ones that do the speeds you want at default. If you are overclocking, then head over to xtremesystems forums or ocforums, and look at the results people are getting.
