Well i was able to use my buddys corsair ram, 2x1gig DDR2 800 5-5-5-12 2T.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145590

And it made my processor be stable up to 2.65ghz from 2.35 on my M2N-E which is a weird board, they also overclocked to DDR2 882. So these pwn my current OCZ gold series ram, although they were never good to begin with. So i need to figure out how i can trade him for his ram cause he doesnt overclock and the golds would be fine for that, maybe a straight trade. :D

That sounds reasonable if he does not OC. Of course, your original purchase prices may play into it. However, I think you both would have equal warranties in the event of a failure.
 
Well he has the same board as me and i told them they worked really well and offered him mine plus $20 but he said no, lol. I guess he wants to start overclocking even though hes not cpu limited at the moment. Oh well back to brainstorming cause i do believe i have a 8800 coming at the end of the month, :D
 
You may want to contact OCZ then. If you have a sub-par set of memory, they may be able to help you out.
