    Quick Ram Question

    Why not get anther cheap G.skill set and turn down the timings to 4-4-4-12? Then you will have your previous 2Gb + another 2Gb at 4-4-4-12.

    ASUS Rampage

    If your going to CF its the board you want...and yes the two PCIe is a price factor, it's just like buying a 680i 790i etc...then there are other things like OCing capability and the 1600FSB also little things like 2xLan ports, extra things you wont find in a vanilla board.

    Need MB/CPU recommendation for new build

    If you can't wait get a Q6600 + Scythe Katana 2 CPU Cooler + P5Q PRO and overclock it, when the prices drop on the Q9xxx series replace the Q6600 if it is not providing the horsepower you need. I personally run the P5Q PRO and is a solid MB, last board was ASUS P5K PRO with a Q6600, their boards...
