QVL memory (newbie question)

[guest747]

Hi, I have a P4P800 SE

After checking the QVL it looks like there are about 10 or
so types of memory that come in size 512MB and can work
safely in 4-slots simultaneously.

Just to show a few:

512MB Winbond W9451GCDB-5 Winbond DS W942508CH-5

512MB Kingston KVR400X64C3A/512 hynix DS HY5DU56822BT-D43

512MB MICRON MT16VDDT6464AG-40BC4 MICRON DS MT46V32M8TG-5BC

Now my question is, how do I find it? I've gone to
newegg, pricewatch, etc... but I can't ever seem to
match any of these product codes with a specific item.

I guess, I'm supposed to translate something like:
"W9451GCDB-5" into the over-the-counter name for the
same memory listed in the QVL but I'm not sure how
to do that.

Take the last one for example:

512MB MICRON MT16VDDT6464AG-40BC4 MICRON DS MT46V32M8TG-5BC

Is it safe to assume that any memory listed as

"MICRON DDR 400 memory in a 512MB" stick is what I am looking for?

Thanks in advance for helping.

Go to Micron's retail outlet, www.crucial.com plug in your board or system
and they'll give you what's right and guarantee it

You can find the Micron to Crucial mapping, by looking at
