[clug] Request: DDR2 sticks

[Rodney Peters]

Peter,

By all means try these sticks, but don't discard if they don't work.

My experience was that a HP having Intel Q35 chipset would not work with 
6400 C5, notwithstanding the manual stating that they were compliant and 
the sticks passing memtest in a generic mainboard.

Cheers

Rod
