Some newer cutting edge boards kind of "pushed" their specs a bit to tweak some extra speed and they have a list of "known good" ram parts that they recommend. This is usually most common with desktop boards that have been pressed into service as a server, which is less than ideal, since they really weren't designed for constant use. Also, hopefully the system is balanced with the ram in proper slots, since most ddr2 boards like matching pairs. I'd let the memtest run as long as you can, and maybe cover a few slots on the system if you can to get the heat up a bit, or at least leave all the covers on if it is on a bench.
