I have a K7N2 Delta ILSR/XP 2500 running at 2200 mhz (11x/200) with a
pair of garden variety PC3200 512mb DIMMs.  I don't believe I have ever
had a lockup on this system (certainly none with FC2)...but I always use
hulking big copper heatsinks/large fans and never less than a 400W power
supply.  Performance is excellent using the standard FC2 forcedeth
driver for the onboard NIC and the intel8x0 sound driver for the onboard
audio.  This system has an nVidia FX 5200 using the nv video driver for
the time being.
