The link you provided does not work.
Here is GSkill 4000 that uses Samsung UCCC BH-5 supose to give decent overclocking:

These PC4000 modules are the same as PC 3200 overclocked w/ changed (looser)timings and reasonably priced. It is garanteed to do DDR500 and more according to GSkill website:

But if you want to take a chance and save some money you can get these and overclock em. Some say they can go as high as 270 mhz FSB:

That Epox board has been heard to run well with lower voltage ram. So I recommend the popular Crucial Ballistix 2x1GB, many people have gotten to 280fsb+ with only 2.9v or so, but then that set is about $290.
