Hi...
Right now in my system I have 512 mb kingston hyperX pc3500 in my pc. I want another 512 megs, but I dont want to spend 150 on another hyperX stick. I'd like a stick of memory for under $80, and I am going to put a blue heat spreader on it so they'll match. What do you all think of this stick? Suggestions would be great.

Thanks
 
one at 3500 and 3200, will that work? you might have to bring down the speed on your hyperX or o/c the new one.

btw im just wondering, how necessary is it to get a heatspreader for overclocking?
and when you do put on a heatspreader, are you meant to take off the nice Corsair sticker?
 
Well my motherboard only supports 3200, so the 3500 always runs at 3200 speeds...I'm just getting a heat spreader becuase my hyperX came with a blue one, and i want them to match...pluse 2 heat spreaders are only $5.
 
Um...well, you can take the chance, though I suggest you'd be better off buying all new PC3200 memory for the most part.
