are you gonna OC this 754....if so I 'd personall buy some Crucial Balistix pc4000. If not Crucial...good luck as most companies who MADE quality RAM are now EOL.(like TCCD)

EOL= end of life.....TCCD is uber low latency super fast ram usually from samsung.

And I believe even if you bios only supports pc3200, if you put in pc4000 it just give you that much more room to OC (hense why i asked if you were gonna OC).
