I've Asus P5Q SE Plus motherboard. yeah, I know it's quite an old wine lol but it's a quality motherboard which has served me for years. I still wish to utilize it for at least 2 years more.

My current RAM is causing lots of issues on this mobo. BSODs, screen freezes, black screens and what not. Maybe the RAM modules are mixed and doesn't match each other well despite having same frequency (DDR2 2GB 800Mhz)

Please advise a good high quality DDR2 800Mhz 8 GB RAM kit (I guess 4x2GB and not 2x4GB) to go with this mobo.

I am unable to find a good branded RAM kit online.

The only ones I can find are these:

which is very cheap... not sure whether it's the same about quality lol
Thanks!

Thank you for the link. I checked it. It doesn't seem to have any 8 GB kit. Only upto 4 GB.

Can I buy two 4 GB kits of
Crucial 4GB Kit (2 x 2GB) DDR2-800 to use them both as 8 GB total RAM on P5Q SE Plus?

ok, thanks! I will buy two 4 GB kits. I hope it works out of the box. I've read people needing to tweak NB and DRAM voltages in order to run 8 GB RAM on this mobo.
