Yea, I read that, I just wanted to make sure before I bought it all. ;)
 
Yea reading the motherboard specs tells all. looks all compatible to me
 
With an AMD chip, I suggest one stick. With the Dual Channel from the nForce2 not offering that much of a performance increase (compared to Dual Channel on an Intel chip), get one 512MB stick now so that when you can afford it, you can get a second 512MB stick and have a gig or RAM available.

...and that would be a good thing. ;)
 
dont get a 60gig, get at least an 80 or 120, its only a few dollars more usually.
