G.Skill DDR2 RAM worth it

I'm currently running 4x1GB Corsair Dominator DDR2-PC6400 800MHz non-OC'd. I'm looking to upgrade to faster, more overclockable RAM. I also would like to eventually increase overall RAM to 8GB since I'm running XP 64bit & can use all 8GBs. Has anyone used G.Skill?

I'm looking at buying either F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16820231166 or F2-8000CL5D-4GBPQ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231145

Both kits are 2x2gb & are 1066MHz and 1000MHz respectively at 5-5-5-15 timings. The only real difference is the price. Any suggestions?

They are both good and solid. If you want the tiny amount of extra performance, go for the higher FSB, but I doubt it'll be hugely noticable for normal gameplay.

You have some nice ram not sure why you want to get G.Skill I think corsair is better ram but thats just my opinion.

The Dominator RAM I have Promos based, not Micron based. Versions 1.1, 1.2, & 1.3 were made with Micron Chips, Versions 2.1 & 2.2 were with Promos Chips. This difference is the ability to achieve stable overclocks. Yeah, I can overclock the ones I have, but not nearly as much as the older versions could. I don't want to be limited to sub 1000MHz RAM. Another reason for the upgrade is breaking the 4GB barrier. I currently am using 4x1GB sticks, taking up all 4 RAM slots. I want to have 8GBs for the purpose of better multiboxing performance. I am using XP Pro 64bit instead of Vista 64bit, which does reduce the strain on RAM when multiboxing. Experiencing both Vista & XP, I have noticed that XP is the way to go for multiboxing. A 64bit OS is optimal with 4GB+ as we know, but the more RAM, the merrier.
