PC3200 on Gigabyte GA-7VAxp board

[tbc]

Hi,
Is anyone using GA-7vaxp from gigabyte? do you know if it is compatible with pc3200 rams? I read the manual, it shows it only supports few brands?
Another quesiton is that is there anything out there that will test the RAM with errors except memtest86, because I have run the test, and it shows lots errors on both of the ram chip I just bought!

Thanks,

What brand did you buy? If you look at my sig. you will see that my mobo is similar to yours, and I've had zero problems with my ram.

Yep...sometimes it's tricky buying the right ram. Some boards (chipsets) just don't work well with some types of ram.

Thanks, I decide to pay a bit more and exchange it to kingston
however, can someone tell me what is this component number mean?
"W942508BH-5 2312D" Does it mean I must buy the Kingston RAM with this component number?
Thanks,
