I think you would do well to run the processor on a Asus board but, you got to run what you are comfortable with. A couple years ago I would not have considered any board but an Epox. I still have 2 Epox 865 chipset boards in use 1 a 478 board and the other a socket 775. Point is now over the last couple years I can't imagine not running an Asus board. I think you will be happy with any board you chose. I will say the only manufacturer I won't touch even today is MSI. They made some nice boards for AMD but they have yet to build one worth a damn for ands intel rig.

Hey M. Farkha it happens even with the best memory. Every so often you just get a bad stick. I have gotten my share over the years.....

Happy New Year!! Thanks for your response. I think I will go with this board and a QX9650, Tuniq 120, and 8 Gig of G Skill 1000. I'm a huge Flight Simulator X Player and do alot of Photography stuff. Also EVGA 8800 GTS 512, and a MM H2go case. Do any of you have any thoughts or sugestions? Thanks!!
