Im getting a Asus m2n32 sli DX mobo, i have the fx62 cpu, need to sort memory,
for starters, is it correct that xp sp2 wont take 4gb? and what make is best for value..cosair/crucial/geil??
And can anyone reccomend what i should go for, the amount in gb, mhz, and anything else you can think off, my knowledge of memory is the best.

32bit XP will only allow you to use ~3.25gb.

PC6400 or good clocking PC5300 is all that's really needed for AM2 systems. So the PC5300 Crucial Ballistix is right up your street.

As for the amount, that really depends on whether you'll use more that 2gb.
