Aw. You missed the $40 mail in rebate for Patriot Extreme Performance DDR2 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC2-6400 Low Latency DIMM Kit http://www.canadacomputers.com/main.php ... AM.346.307. I bought this RAM for my M2N-E and it's GREAT! I love this RAM. Fast, stable, and it works with my crap M2N-E. BTW, ran CPU-Z and it seems that it can run at 1000Mhz with 2.3V at 5-5-5-15.

Only downside is that I have to run it at 5-5-5-12 instead of 4-4-4-12 cus my mobo lacks the required vdimm. And if I had waited for like 3 days, I would've payed $89.99 instead of $95.99 at the store. :shock: $6 means a lot to me :mrgreen:

You can also get this RAM http://www.canadacomputers.com/main.php ... AM.346.307. It's OCZ (OCZ2RPR8002GK) DDR2 PC2-6400 800MHz Reaper HPC Edition 2GB (2x1024MB) EPP Dual Channel Kit.
