Whatever mbrd & memory you get check for compatibility.  If the MSI mbrd,
the Taiwan site, http://www.msi.com.tw/index.htm, has a Recommend List for
several add-ins including memory modules for their mbrds.

FWIW I've found their recommended Kingmax memory to work well in the K8T
Neo boards for a reasonable price.  I got the Kingmax PC3500 CL=2.5 for a
coupla $$ extra.  Of course after you get it, beat the hell out of it with
memtest86 before you even think about installing an OS.
