DFI Lanparty SLI-DR

I read reviews for this board on newegg... and it seemed to get mixed reviews. Some had serious problems with it, others loved it.

One of the things that bothered me though, is that one of them said it would not take Corsair XMS ram (512 x 2).

Thats the RAM i have. So, i'm wondering if maybe his board was glitched, or this is true?

Anyhow, this is my system, or what it will be.

AMD64 4600+ X2
DFI Lanparty SLI-DR
Evga 7800GTX (going SLI in future)
Corsair XMS 1GB (512 x 2)
Audigy 2 ZS
Seasonic S12 500W

Will the mobo work well with this combo?



EDIT: I initially asked for a suggested mobo good for gaming/overclocking and everyone suggested the DFI Lanparty SLI-DR, but now i'm confused. I keep reading about all these kinds of problems with it.

I even made a thread in General Hardware, and asked for a recommened PSU with my setup. Everyone recommended the Seasonic S12 500W. And now.. people are telling me there's problems with the PSU and the Mobo..

Soo.. what am i to believe?

Or, will someone recommend me a good mobo for gaming/sli?


Thanks!
 
I have both boards,A8N SLI Premium and the DFI Lanparty SLI-DR. Both boards are awesome.. I had zero issues with setup on both boards. Bothe were easy to install and getup and running. I used the same parts on both boards with no problems... what I did notice about the 2 that I have was that the asus board ran a little faster with everything set at stock. Overclocking is where DFI's board shines over asus. Im not that much of an overclocker YET, but thats why I picked up the dfi board, to learn.. If you have any other questions about the dfi board goto http://www.dfi-street.com/forum.. Good info,help and people there.. good luck
 
I currently use the OCZ PSU and have had no problem with it, and I run quite a few harddrives on it. however I havn't overclocked yet, but everything on this board is pretty rock solid and support at DFI forum is quite useful. I highly recommend it
