You got the wrong ram.
You need DDR 3. That's DDR 2.
It comes in sets of 3, ie, 3x 2GB.

Not really, but I haven't done an AMD build since s939 but I have heard of good results with that board. The proc is a Phenom IIx4 right?
I'd like to see your results once you get it settled in

Wow, I didn't notice the ram...Doh!

You've got the correct RAM sizes listed there - only two sticks!
(Some people are just stuck in Intel Land. )


However, Theocnoob is right about DDR2 if you're getting the 940BE. You're looking for DDR2-1066 or (my favorite) DDR2-800 CAS4 ...
