Just a note there, Christopher - DDR != DDR2.
What you have there is DDR. The thread subject is for DDR2. Perhaps I
missed something overnight, but had you bought DDR2, you would have had
some paperweights.
On another note, in the motherboard I had that took PC3200, if I used
matching modules, it would do dual-channel, but if I did all four
sticks, dual channel, it would drop the speed of the RAM from 400 MHz to
333 MHz (And I don't know why, either.)
