What RAM for Shuttle nForce2 (AN35 Ultra-400)?

I'm getting ready to purchase a Shuttle nForce2 (AN35 Ultra-400) and was wondering what would be the best value RAM to buy for it. I want to stick with a single piece of 512MB for now and pick up another piece later on. If anyone is currently using or had one of these boards, I sure would appreciate any input before I pull the trigger.

Thanks in advance...
 
Do you plan on overclocking the RAM?

What CPU do you plan on plopping in that Shuttle, and do you want to overclock it?

Any of the Tbred Bs or Bartons will match up well with PC3200 when set at 200fsb.

All brands are pretty much the same in price.... from the Samsung and Kingston at around $85 to more expensive Crucial at $95. Not much variance. If you plan on overclocking, I would go for the Crucial.

And when you go to add the next 512MB stick in later, make sure you use DIMMs 1 and 3, or 2 and 3, if you want to get the benefits of Dual Channel. Just not 1 and 2 together.
