Best DDR3 4GB kit.

I need a good 2x2GB DDR3 kit for my latest build, what is the best bang for the buck?

I want to spend at most $150, preferably around $100.

not a 4 gb kit but this http://www.lambda-tek.com/components...prodID=B102132 ( although find it in America obviously) in a 4gb kit is great

I've got it running at 1800 mhz at the moment.

with which processor are you using ddr3? the c2d? didn't know you could run ddr3 on it but then again, I'm pretty noob
anyway.. here's my choices (if you OC):
cas 6 :O
too pricy... but its awesome!
best bang for the buck I think

remember to look at cas... timing makes a good amount of difference... if you compare cas9 to cas7... there's a big difference, also try to get 1600mhz+
