Best DDR400 for AMD Athlon 64 3200+

I'm looking to build a new PC after 3 long years. I've been somewhat out of the loop in terms of memory. The system I'll be putting together will be a Shuttle SFF using an AMD Athlon 64 3200+. What are some of the recommended DDR400 memory sticks people are using? I was looking to do a total of 1GB of RAM. Thanks.
 
Are you planning to overclock? If you are looking for performance then you want memory that runs tight timings like 2-2-2-5.
 
DDR400 is DDR400 as long as it's from a reputable company. Sticks from any of the following will do very well:

Mushkin
Crucial
Corsair
Kingston
PQI
PDP/Patriot
G. Skill
OCZ
GeiL
 
Im running some Twinmoss ddr 400 a dual kit ( 2*512 )

I made sure i got it with winbond chips, ch-5. it speced at ddr400 cas 2.5 and other nasty high numbers, but with no extra voltage, is running rock solid at 400 - cas 2.0-3-3-10.

Im loving Twinmoss. however, winbond chips arnt that common now, but then, samsung is the new winbond, so look for some samsung chipped dimms.

Just steer clear of generic / branded cl3 dimms. nasty!
