The board your getting doesnt have RAID like the Deluxe Asus. I have researched ASUS boards and have seen alot of good reviews from the A7N8X non deluxe (not sure i got the numbers right) and have also seen many many people take a 2500 to a 3200 on them. The Asus name is good, there board is good looking, and it has features I will use, and not loaded with features I wont use.

Dual Channel ram is what i want to take advantage of with the board im getting.

Here is the ram im getting.

HyperX 2X256MB PC3700

I was going to get the 3200...but this is actually cheaper...It doesnt show the timings and the timing on the 3200 are 2-2-2-6. Usually the higher speeds seem to have more lengthy timings such as the PC4000 has 3-4-4-8...so will the 3700 be slower then the 3200? I can spend the 10 dollars more for the 3200.
