Do you think this ddr3 set Mushkin HP3-12800 4096 MB, PC3-12800, 1600 MHz, 8, Non-ECC, Kit Of 2 would be any good for this mobo?
I used the one that came with the Asus Silent Square Pro CPU cooler, as it has the space to avoid the ML cap. I have no experience with the mushkin memory, and with the pickyness of this board reguarding memory I can't give you an answer.. 3oh6 seems to have a pair tho..

Anyhow, i shut down, and then when i switched on the PC it wouldnt boot - it just did the whole continual switch on or switch off thing, either that or all the lights came on and nothing happened. After much fiddling i got it working again, when I went into bios, it had changed the FSB to 433mhz, and my voltages to 1.9v vcore!!!! 2.4v NB, 1.5v Vdimm - they were all over the place, no wonder it wouldnt boot. Luckily no damage was done. After correcting the settings all back up and running fine.

This is on 0403 bios. Has anyone else experienced this - obviously this is a potentially serious issue.
Can you update your sig so we know your latest setup? Also if you can post your "extreme tweaker" settings.

If you can't get CellShock DDR3-1800 Black then yeah I think G.Skills are your best bet. Corsair may be compatible too.. but not too many reports on it.

I have flashed to 0403, I guess I can go in there (the bios) and change the bios chip that I boot from. Then flash that to 0404, have a play with that, then if I don't like it just go back in there and change back to boot from the 0403 bios chip which already has my good settings preserved.

Can anyone confirm this is possible ?.
Of course. The joys of BIOS flashback! Flash yourself out!
