Well, it's unbuffered, non-ECC DDR RAM at a higher speed grade than required. Can't see why it shouldn't work.

Shouldn't be a problem. I currently have 1 - 256mb of Buffalo PC3200 and 1 - 512mb of Kingston PC2700 on my ECS K7S5A and it runs fine.

It will run fine at DDR2100. Get CPUFSB change the FSB to 166, and put this program on the auto startmenu. I works best with the lastest stock BIOS (not the mod ones). Your computer will start normally (11x133), once windows loads CPUFSB will change the FSB to 166 giving you 1833mhz. If it locks then just place CPUFSB in the trash bin, but if it works the SIS735/745 rock at 166/166. Much faster than VIA133A/266A/333 or the original NF, hell they run almost like an NF2 with DC.CPUFSB
