Memory Questions K8V
Doing a slow build and need some advice....finally down to the last two
pieces of puzzle. Already decided on the A64 3200+ , now I need some memory. I want to install 1GB, 2 512's preferrably. I'll go with either PC3200,3500, or 4000, doesn't really concern me since I'm not a avid overclocker. Which brand memory do you guys recommend, some model numbers would be helpful, I kinda have my heart set on Mushkin, but will consider others for more compatibility. Thanks in advance. Oh, btw, I have the ASUS K8V SE Deluxe. Tim |

Check out the user guide and the homepage of asus for DDR qualified vendors list. greets alex |

I finall found by trial and error that Crucial DDR400 worked well and ran MEMTEST86 for 24 hours. Some brands work, some have to have big delays for CAS to data and some just downright do not work.

They're running very nicely, so far, on my Asus K8V Deluxe. -- Ian. EOM |
You're probably past this step by now, but just in case you're interested...
OCZ Enhanced Bandwidth series was designed with the Athlon 64 in mind and is recommended by OCZ for use with many K8T800 motherboards. It is one of the few OCZ modules that is on their compatibility list for the Asus K8V, which is particularly picky when it comes to memory. Al "Tim M." wrote in message . ..
