Im using the triple channel memory (Corsair dominator 3x2 gb) from my old setup, but it runs not very well.

2 gb runs normal, 4 gb runs sometimes (sometimes it boot sometimes not), 6gb wont run.

Nessecery buying dual or quad channel ddrs ?
P67 and Z68 boards are dual channel.

Does anyone have any other source confirming or contradicting the information in those links?

Edit : The statement that bothers me the most 'Z68 Professional Gen3 and Z68 Extreme7 Gen3 will support Ivy Bridge CPU'
I've been told by my contacts the Gen3 boards will get a UEFI update to support Ivy, they aren't sure on non gen3 boards yet though.

What confuses me though is (I haven't had time to read through everything posted here yet) I don't think I've seen any mention of bsod'ing here while in the thread linked there is almost 9 pages of complaints about the etron drivers mixed in with oc'ing problems.

This board really is good value it seems, but if it's as problem ridden as I've heard is it worth it?
Both P67 and Z68 boards I have do not have many problems at all. Certainly nothing as drastic as random BSODs and even the Etron issue is under relative control now. Just be sure to download the latest Etron driver (clicky) and you should be good to go.
