Indeed you will, I am curious as to your opinion about OCZ that causes you to refuse to use their RAM. I am not trying to start a brand war, I am just wondering why you personally would not use their RAM.

Personally I am pretty much willing to use anything that works at the speed I want or at least as high of a speed above DDR2-800 as possible and still runs reasonably cool.
In my personal experience I must say that I am rather fond of my OCZ sticks. At DDR2-1000 5-5-5-15 @ 2.35v or whatever absurd voltage I had to set in my BIOS that I cannot clearly remember atm - they stay super cool even if I kill the 80mm fan near them and only rely on the F7P to pull air in that area.
