The Crucial ram is always a safe bet (I think it's the fifth one you listed).
You need PC3200, non-ECC, CAS# = 3.0. I think three of the sticks you listed showed this.

Jason,
However, when I when to Crucial's page and look for recommended memory for 8300, this one is not listed. That is why I am unsure.

Yes, Crucial also lists a different part number for the PC3200 CL=3 that is for the 4600. I believe they use different part numbers to track which system is driving the biggest sales. However, the specifications behind the part number are all identical.
