I am thinking about getting this X48 Rampage Forumla board. First I wanted to go for DDR3, but price for good DDR3 bricks are just way to high for me.
So I am thinking about setup like this one>
CORSAIR Dominator TWIN2X8500C5DF 2048MB, DDR2, 2x1GB(KIT), DHX, E.P.P, with FAN (TWIN2X2048-8500C5DF)
INTEL E8500 C2D PROCESSOR 3.16G 6MB 1333MHZ FSB (EU80570PJ0876M)

I am just wondering how easy it will be to overclock E8500 to 9.5x425 4037.5mhz on this board?
And if I need to go for better memory like 1200mhz / PC9600. And what are the benefits if there is any?
