Hey guys I want to give a shot @ DFI, shall I pick this board, or the new X38 LP , the X38 is cheaper then the P35 (10euro`s). I just wonder how 4x 1GB Ballistix would run or 2x2 G.SKILL 8000, got them both.

I was not speaking from experience its just I had heard GKX didn't do to good with the P35 chipset.
I guess you may just have some crappy sticksbut it would still be worth knowing whats written on your chips if they are not performing well.
How new are your Ballistix ?
The LT x38 if you can find it in stock yet in Europe doesn't have the heatpipe like the UT P35 thats possibly why its cheaper.
I love my P35 imo its flawless a proper 110% pat on the back for DFI. If I were in your shoes with the x38 just around the corner I would hold out a bit longer although I hear the x38 chipset is having divider issues. Apparently the4:5 divider isn't going to well & as of yet theres not much out there to compare against the P35 so only time will tell how far apart the two boards are.
On the RAM front the answer is I don't know which will be better on the x38but generally the 2 x 2GB kits run easier than 4 x 1GB sets all be it the 2 x 2GB sets may be a little fsb limited for some.
