DDR4 isnt in production for system RAM, and no platform supports it. u must be mistaken

heatspreaders actually insulate more heat than they help. when doing a real overclock, most people REMOVE the heatspreaders

oo ight it supports the DDR2, the corsair is actually descent ram. you should get it, and remove ur 2 x 256 it will just probably downclock ur ram's potential, and remmber put ur 2 x 1gb sticks in slot A1 + B1 for dual channel
