Any PC3200 that is rated for 2-2-2-5 will work great. OCZ EL, PQI, Patriot...

Thanks for the quick reply, As you can see I am an AMD guy this is my first P4 build, from what I have read so far it seems I need to get unregistered and unbuffered memory for this board (P4C800 E Deluxe) Does anyone or do you know of a proven & tested specific brand of memory for this board, please be specific!!

Thanks for your time, Tracy

I've had trouble with Kingston and this board (may have just been my luck) so i'm hesistant to recommend them.

PQI Turbo 2-2-2-5
OCZ EL Rev 2.0

I have used these with P4P800 and P4C800 boards as they are the most readily available types around my location and no issues.

I use OCZs Platinum Revision2 and the Gold VX and they work fine
