Based on my personal experience, that of a few friends that are experienced builders, and mixed reports on this excellent, XtremeSys thread, I cannot recommend the Rampage Extreme for use with quad core processors -- yet.
Mezzro - I tend to agree - I'm on my 3rd set of memory trying to get a 420+ FSB. Now on Corsair Dominator 1800Mhz C7 not yet on my sig. The RE is my gaming rig whilst I have an AMD FX62 (i think) for general digital photo/office/internet use. Thinking about getting an E8600 for the RE set up and replacing the AMD machine entirely but utilising the QX9770 - what mobo would you recomment for that chip ?....I'm thinking P5E3 Premium maybe.

Still hoping for a bios update to help things along
