3200 runs at 400mhz, 3500 runs at 434mhz, 3700 runs at 466 (or is it 450mhz?)mhz. TWINMOS is nice ram cuz it can handle very aggressive timings. what type of board are you running this ram in?

but dude, you just don't get it. There is no feasible reason to have 1 gig. It's a waste of money.

Not many. You can try out OCZ, Geil, or Kingston HyperX

Only thing I can say is that I've actually heard of Corsair, never heard of Twinmos. Of course, that doesn't mean too much.

System Specs

ram

Kingson HyperX is nice, but it's timings is very relaxed, i'll go for corsair or OCZ. I wouldn't pick Twinmos, they dont do good highend DDR sticks.
