Would appreciate help. I know folks here have this board. What RAM did you run successfully on it in 1x2GB config?

You'r not getting replies because there are hundreds of sticks that will work. A lttle more info may help. Do you want to OC? If not, pretty much any DDR400 memory will be fine. If you do, then knowing the max FSB (HTT) and multiplier you can use would be essential to making a recomendation.

ok i guess i just dont want to drop the $$$ on 2GB of RAM only to find out it's flakey. RAM has been the least reliable/stable item in the last two systems I've built and they were both Asus boards (A7N8X Deluxe 2.0 and this A8N-SLI Premium) and they were both high quality sets of RAM. Frustrating and don't want to repeat that, especially jumping up to 2GB.

It doesn't have to OC, though I did OC this 3200+ Venice to 3800+ speeds previously without a problem. I really don't need that though, and don't currently have it OC'd (the board is weird and it was affecting other hardware negatively so I had to remove the OC).

Maybe it's just the board is a POS and I should build a new system instead of spending money on this one...

For what it's worth, I'm currently running my A8N-SLI Premium with 2 GB (2 x 1GB) ECC DIMMS from Crucial at stock speeds.

No problem so far.
