Hello,
I found ebay offer for memory DDR2 specified "AM2"http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...r/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350026175312

Do you known why this DDR2 memory is specified "AM2" ? Intel socket 775
motherboard based on Intel 965 or P35 chipset use the same memory

No there is no difference. DDR2 is a JEDEC standard and has nothing to
do with AMD or Intel. How ever having said that, it may be that some
AMD or Intel processors want to work with a certain DDR2 speed grade.

Marketing probably. The price of the two latest item is very low. I've
ordered one and I'll install it on my Asus P5B Deluxe (Intel 965 chipset)
 
I've received chip. It was DDR2-667 instead 800 !!

chip are :
SAMSUNG 803
K4T1G044QA-ZCE6

VCH6500CC Korea
DDR2 EAHD

there is 8 chip on each side, both side have chip, so we have 16 chip on
each stick

Are you gonna return them? They were advertised as 800Mhz in the ads
weren't they?
