I have the same mb and CPU. The manual does not mention ECC memory; I
would assume it is not supported. That price (56 euro) converts to
about $72 USD. I just bought the same type for less than $40. I doubt
that you will have any stability problems with a less expensive brand.
Remember that you will have to set the multiplier switches to 11x on
the motherboard and manually set the FSB speed to 166 and memory speed
to 100% to set the resulting memory speed to 333 - that is the only
speed that that particular processor supports. The BIOS will try to
set it at 400.

I have the same board ver2. I installed two Kingston PC3200/400 512 sticks
and had some instability. The board only supports 2.5v and Kingston was
2.6v. I switched to corsair 2.5v and everything calmed down. Then I took a
chance and put one of the Kingston 512's back in and boosted the voltage by
0.1 to 2.6v. Now I have a gig and a half and it's been running great for a
couple of months. Using an AMD3200+/400. Please let me know what kind of
temps. you are getting with this board. Mine reports the CPU at 51C to 55C.
I have plenty of fans and a good HS fan.
