Thanks for the help guys. To answer some of your questions I will not be overclocking and the mobo I buy will be top of the line and use Nvidia's 680i chipset.

I ended up getting corsair:
4GB DDR2 XMS2-6400 UNBUF-240DIMM 4-4-4-12 EPP HTSK
My understanding is that it will run at 533 even though its 800 because my cpu is 1066. I could not find any ram at Dell with C3 timings. All of it was C4 and C5.

BTW most OCZ ram wants 2.2V instead of the 1.8v your mobo is set to as default. If you put the corsair in it to boot the system and change the voltage you culd probably put the OCZ in it. i read that last night. Don't hold me to it.
