I hear theres some compatibility issues with RAM on 680i chipsets, especially on my board, the ASUS p5N32 Sli-E

Does anybody know where the qualified vendor list is for this board?

or any good experiences with RAM and this board?

thanks!

I got 2 DIMMS totalling 4 gig's of Patriot 800 mhz DDR2 and it works just fine.

I think with this chipset, you can only go past this RAM speed if it is SLI RAM. This is also a DDR2 board so no DDR3.

The board should be able to handle anything within this range; if not, it might be bad RAM.
