There ar a number of real good brands to look at, but one sticks out from the rest at the moment.

For general overperfomance, quality, and value for money, Corsair value select pc3200 with the cas latency of 2.5 is the best on the market...

IF IT AINT BROKE, DONT FIX IT

A8N-SLI Deluxe
AMD X64 3500+ Wnchst
Corsair 2x512 DDR400 Dual Channel
GV-NX6600128D PCIX Graphics Card
Ggbyte GT Pro CPU Cooler
Zalman VF700-CU VGA Cool

I use the Corsair that Janos mentioned in his above post. I got it at Newegg.com for a very good price. Since it's 2 matched sticks, it works in dual channel mode. I've had no problems with it so far. Good Luck. I would also check out Crucial. It's a very good RAM.
