Can I use this memory?

This is my motherboard


This is the memory

I wanted to buy some more memory but I wanted it to be usable for any future builds (Don't plan on using DDR2 anytime soon)

thanks!

EDIT: According to my motherboard manual, it supports 2.5V DDR memory.
The memory says its 2.75V


EDIT2:
I ended up buying the OCZ memory. It was almost the same price AR as the Corsair. Now I need to sell my old memory. Are asking for price checks allowed? If not, then I won't 🙂

Thanks everyone for all the advice!
 
You could, but you do know that you're buying OCing RAM don't you. As such you know that you're spening $70 extra or so on premium RAM for a 5% difference or so.

If you aren't gonna overclock then you can get much cheaper memory.

Do you guys have any recommendations on good stable memory?

I want 2 gig and I want it to run in dual channel.

Cheaper would be nicer 🙂

Will work but you would be better off with Value RAM if you plan to overclock.

Better value for money yes, but slightly less performance with value RAM (when overclocking) surely.

It won't be a problem.

Good RAM, great price. 2GB kit of CVS (Corsair ValueSelect) FTW.

hehe that's exact same ram bamacre recommended

2 recommendations, looks like I might get this one 🙂

If you are not OC'ing your cpu, that is the best ram to get. I use it all the time for system builds.
