    Memory compatability is a big issue with this board, at least that has been my experience.

    I have 6GB of perfectly good Samsung DDR3-1600 here, that apparently won't work with this board (at least with the orig 0402 BIOS). Tech support doesn't want to know you once they narrow down the problem to memory and you don't have one of the few kits that is on the QVL. I'm going to order some G-SKILL DDR3-1333 from Newegg and then hopefully everything will work. I shouldn't have to deal with this crap though with a $300 board; not just the memory incompatability but also rude tech support. And their RMA department that sends out a board with the oldest BIOS available even though you specifically request one with the latest stable BIOS, given that there have been 3 BIOS updates since launch, all of which say that they "Improve memory compatibility."
