No, it will not - period. Your MOBO uses DDR2 RAM and is limited to 2GB/stick density. [strike]In addition, you need to list your CPU for the 'ideal' RAM frequency.[/strike] If you want 8GB then you must select (2) 2x2GB matched kits or preferably 4x2GB DDR2 matched Kit. Further, for >4GB a 64-bit OS is required; 32-bit OS will be limited to 4GB with 3.0GB~3.5GB to the OS.

edit: noted "Intel Core 2 Duo E8400"
For a 1:1 I recommend DDR2-667 4x2GB, but if you plan to OC then DDR2-1066 4x2GB.

*When installing total memory of 4GB capacity or more, Windows 32-bit operation system may only recognize less than 3GB. Hence, a total installed memory of less than 3GB is recommended.
