Works on Asus M2NPV-VM...Buy It

ADATA 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model AD2U800B1G5-DRH
ADATA 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model AD2U800B1G5-DRH

Pros: I was concerned that this memory would not work with my Asus M2NPV-VM. But it has been working flawlessly in dual channel mode. I have Bios rev. 0603 so maybe that helps.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Asus M2NPV-VM; AMD Athlon 64 x2 3600+(SWEET); Western Digital SATA 250GB; NEC 18x DVDRW

Most Critical Review

Not very good quality, do not buy..

APEVIA X-QPACK-NW-AL/420 Black/ Silver Aluminum Micro ATX Desktop Computer Case 420W Power Supply

Pros: I like the style and size. But.......

Cons: Quality is very poor for $xx. I would not recommend this case. Overall I am disappointed with this flimsy case. Even the paint on the shell feels cheap. My last case lasted 6 years. I cannot imagine this one will last even a couple of years.

Overall Review: This would be a nice case if it was made from qaulity materials.

My 2nd set of this ram and it works great

ADATA 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model AD2U800B1G5-DRH

Pros: Snap it in and no problems. Nice looking heat spreaders.

Cons: Vista 32 bit only addresses 3.1gb out of my 4.0gb of ram. Nothing to do with Adata.

Overall Review: I already had 2gb I should have saved some money and got the 2x512 set.

This motherboard works great.

Pros: This motherboard is excellent. There has not been any problems at all. Some settings are strange if you have not built a computer in a while. You need to read read read in order to get everything working good.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Alot of the cons that I have read on this boil down to wrong settings. The windows default audio drivers will not allow you to properly set it up. Download the latest from Asus then select in Windows analog or digital. Also the DVI out problem is a wrong bios setting for most people.

Nice Drive

Cons: None

Overall Review: Western Digital has always been my choice of hard drives.
