Thanks for the info dude, I didn't realise there were still issues between some name brands & certain mobos. I've only had 1 lot of Corsair, AFAIK, & don't recall any probs, but they're not usually a brand I tend to consider anyway.

As I mentioned before, I would have preferred Geil, the Black Dragon ones, but they would have cost me... ~£123 + postage, which I couldn't really afford at the moment.

Yeah, I'm quite fond of them too. I've had 2 or 3 lots of them now without any probs.

I'm still running 4x1GB of Geil Ultra for now, but hopefully should be running 8GB of this from tomorrow.
