Hi there, I'm buying a P5K-VM which is a decently rated mATX overclockable board, to get some more speed out of my E6420, without investing too much money :)

Now I've found a decent deal:

This is just the board, but as i'm gonna just replace another mobo, I dont think I'll need the stuff that normally comes with a new package...


My question is preferably from that website which memory to get, My FSB is currently non overclocked on 266 and i'd like to get it somewhere in the range of 310-320, not a hardcore overclock but I'll still need some memory that can handle the overclock and get decent performance.

I dont really know if it would be best to go with 800 or 1066 memory, pricewise it doesnt matter to much I'm looking to spend max around 50 euro on the memory, for a 2 Gig KIT.
Preferably from that website:


the 800mhz options:

the 1066mhz options:

tnx in advance for any advice
