Ram is ram. Its fine as long as its the same gen like ddr2 and ddr3. DDR3 goes in a ddr3 mobo and ddr2 goes in a ddr2 mobo.

I used to think that RAM is RAM and that as long as it's the supported speed it would work, I was wrong however.
I had the privilege to work with the Corsair Vengeance RAM  and the Asus 990FX Sabertooth R2.0, the RAM turned out to be unsupported and this caused a lot of serious stability issues, including corrupted source files, blue screens and system hangs.

I would highly recommend reading the memory support list of the motherboard via the motherboard manufacturer's website.

You can find the memory support list for the GA-A55M-DS2

here : http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3998#memory%20support%20list

 

and for the GA-G41M here :
http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3505#memory%20support%20list

If the memory modules are not supported you can run them, however you will need to go into the BIOS and enter all the primary timings yourself.
