On the ExcaliburPC website they isue this warning:

- All HyperX Memory may have incompatable issue with nForce2 V2.0 M/B, please consider it before you make the purchase. Return will not be accepted due to this reason.-

( http://www.excaliberpc.com/product [...] cts_id=714 )

Does anyone has any experience with this combo...?
I find it hard to believe, an overclockers mobo and such high quality memory have incomatibility issues...

Please help out!!!

Man I hope not. I've got that board coming from that site this next week. I've got the Hyper X 2 sizes 2 x 2700 & 2 x 3200 to run it with here already. I haven't decided what speed RAM I'm going to run on it yet. This is the first I've heard of this issue. Must be the V 2.0 because it's just getting out now. Man I hope it isn't the case.

If it ain't broke, take it apart & see why not!

Well I can say that Hyper X 3200 runs just fine on the A7N8X Deluxe V 2.0 MOBO. I've ran it sync. & async. Right now I've got it async. @ cas 2.0 & the board set to aggressive. Benches just fine. I still don't know where the incompatibilities come in, or came from. I searched everywhere & Prof133 searched as well, couldn't find anything out. I'm happy & it's a great system.

Honey, what's that smell? Don't bother me now I'm working on my computer! OOPS!
