I have 2 sticks of Corsair CMX512RE 3200LL RAM (yes its old...fiddling around making a computer for a friend).

My question is whether I can pair this with an Intel P4 630HT, or only with AMD cpus, as it seems that the memory has been tested for AMD and I am not sure if I can use it with an intel. Thank you very much in advance!

The main reason I was asking was to check if the RAM was AMD specific, or if it could go in an Intel motherboard. I know that type of RAM can go into the Intel motherboard, my question is specific to this actual RAM and whether I can use it with my Intel motherboard.
