RAM for Abit IC7?

[MegaCharger]

I changed my mind and went with the IC7 instead. Which RAM should I get? I need 1 GB of them. Should I go with the Corsair ddr400 twin packs? Those seemed to have conflict with canterwoods. If I go for the ddr433, which is good? Kingston hyperX? Corsair CMX? But they don't seem to have twin pack for ddr433, and I want to run them at dual channel mode. I've heard that if your 2 sticks of 512 isn't compatable at dual channel you would have one hell of a time trying to fix it. Is it worth the risk? AHhhh I'm so desperate for help!

* Still seems to be cases of twinx having problems with canterwood. Until we can be more sure that the combo will work out-of-box, it would be best to get two sticks of Corsair XMS CAS2 memory - no twinx and no low-latency memory. You expressed interest in PC3500 memory, so get two Corsair XMS PC3500 CAS2 memory modules.

* The IC7 (non -G version) doesn't have LAN. So, you'll need to add a PCI LAN card if needed.

Hmm what's the chance that the 2 sticks would not work together in dual channel mode?

Corsair is recommending what I recommended to you - Corsair XMS PC3500 CAS2 memory. PC3500, as opposed to PC3200, because it's more versatile and provides room to grow. I'm in no position to provide a probability of the two modules not working in dual-channel DDR. I can only recommend what corsair is recommending.

Ok thanks. I guess I'll just go with that. I hope to God it won't screw up
