Downside this ram needs more voltage then the M2N-E gives as it is limited to 1.91 on current bios

3) Patriot 2x1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 667 4-4-4-12 $179-$30 MIR @ EGG

4) Corsair 2x1GB XMS2 TWIN2X2048-5400C4 DDR2 667 CL 4-4-4-12 $169 @ EGG

I have read really good things about the Patriot and I see that Corsair is approved for the Asus board. The Mushkin is a bit pricey so prolly will pass on it. I left out OCZ based on seeing users having issues ruinning it at DDR2 800 on this board or the SLI version.

I gotta order tonight and am leaniong to the Corsair or Patriot, thoughts & choices, quickly? The GSKILL is enticing at its price and I have always been price/performance and done okay

updated it with links, hoping to get some feedback, always nice when opinions are based on personal use vs reviews alone, just some added feedback help.
