Would any Abit Av8 users out there post what brand of memory they are using to sucessfuly run in dual channel mode? I am planning to use 2-512mb for a gig of memory. The Abit compatibility chart on their website isnt much help.

thanks alot.

I'm running the AX8 (near identical to AV8) with KingMax DDR400 SuperRAM in dual channel (2 x 512). Easy 220FSB with 2.5-3-3-8-1T timing. Have pushed up to 236FSB with no other changes to BIOS.

I'm currently testing for stability at 222MHz with LDT @ 5x or 1110MHz.

Another post indicated Corsair Value.

I've got an AV8 with 2X512 of Corsair VR in dual channel. It runs PRIME and SuperPi to 32M with zero errors, but in normal use the board is unstable and I think (hope) the problem is my PS. I have an Antec TP430 which is about 2-3 years old and only has 18A on the 12v rail. I've got an OCA Modstream on the way so I'll know more later next week.
