1st time G. Skill user = impressed
Yeah, I know DDR2-1066 isn't particularly necessary if your not going to overclock, but as this is the same sort of price as DDR2-800 RAM, I though "stuff it" and gave it a go.
I have 2 boards - an Asus Striker II Formula (which is in the RMA process - again and again) and has never taken 1066 RAM (even though its supposed to support it) and an Asus P5Q SE PLUS.
I've installed this on the SE PLUS - and it works fantastically - not only that, but I've overclocked it a little along with my Q9550 chip by upping my FSB from 333 MHz to 350MHz - so although 1066MHz RAM is "overclocked" 800 MHz RAM, it can still run a little faster on top.
Overall, I rate this as a really great buy!

Great stable performance
Performs really well on my ASUS system, runs at 1066MHz at stock voltage. Plenty of room for overclocking I think, but I have not tried this yet.
