Has anyone heard of any problems with using two 512MB DIMMS (PNY) with this motherboard?

I have not................however.........PNY memory is not generally considered "high quality" RAM. Most of the serious power users and overclockers on this forum prefer name brand memory, e.g. Mushkin, Crucial, Kingston, Corsair. I like Crucial myself, maybe because their website is extremely user-friendly and their tech support is excellent.:|

Can't speak for the "PNY" RAM, but I built a rig using that exact board and 2 x 512MB of Corsair PC2700 RAM about 2 months ago and it has been running 100% stable. Guy's using it for CAD/3D stuff.

Intel has a chart on their site that shows what RAM has been tested and approved for each MoBo, however don't worry if your RAM's not on there. All the Intel MoBo/RAM combos I've ever put together have never been with "Inel Approved" RAM but they've always worked perfect.

Thanks for the heads up. I think I'll go with the Crucial ram after all.
