Also I want to put 8GB RAM (from my sig), has S2E had problems with 8GB?

8GB...I think you'll be the first in this thread. I for one would love to see someone try it. I intend to move to 8GB when prices fall further on 2GB 1800 sticks.

Anand posted this article where they overclocked the Asus 790i with 8GB of hand picked OCZ. http://www.anandtech.com/weblog/showpost.aspx?i=419 so I guess technically it's possible but the amount of tweaking I have had to do just to get to 1800 with 4GB leads me to believe you will have trouble with 8GB.
