Is there anyway you could test this board with the specs I have to see if I mihgt encounter any problems? I really want to know for a stable stock system, being that I don't know how to OC just ram timings etc...

You might want to get caught up on what is real and what is "they" said. Huge difference in what we think we saw and what is...woke me up as well.

Fair enough :)

Sorry, I thought I had my RAM stated in there. Sig is updated. Ya think this ram is good for this mobo, if not, I just spent $195 for nothing... Well, I went to corsair's website and up untill this afternoon they didn't have this mobo under listings for ram compatibility, well. Now I read that it is...I'm happy. Let's hope it makes me happy too. :shake:

Yep I do that precisely with PC 4000 ram; set it as PC 3200 and put my CPU freq at 250. Naturally, I manually set all my memory values.

 

While I am here:

 

Use a single stick of ram in the orange slot furthest from the CPU when installing. (As RGone pointed out.)

 

Do a full format, not a quick format, of the drive where you are installing your OS.

 

Install without any add in cards other than graphics present, particularly your sound card. Do that later.

 

Disable on board sound before putting your sound card in your case.

 

Try OCZ Tony's BIOS!
