    Ahh cool thanks. I wonder why Newegg doesn't say that??

    EDIT: Thanks C Yeah Im going to pick up another one of those boards for the WC rig as the water blocks will still fit. And I have that ram already, Thanks to you

    BTW Clocker does this ram come up as 800 for you as well? I always have to set the speed in the bios. If so any reason why that happens??

    Just make sure that you are using the latest stable firmware. I was struggling with DPC latency after purchasing the mobo then it all worked fine after upgrading the firmware and now I am more than happy.

    Good Luck.

    All RAM displays a max of 800 as that's the highest officially recognized JEDEC spec for DDR2 (when the spec was written).

    Thats the EXACT setup I have right now in the water cooled rig. What firmware do you mean? Do you mean the Bios? This board right?

    So sorry , I meant the BIOS, you are right Detale!
    What CPU case are you using for the water cooling system? seems like you are overclocking something is this true?

    I also have a gigabyte, a GA-P35C-DS3R , cheaper than those but with DDR3 support, and i must say that i hate those mofos at gigabyte for taking them nearly 6 months to solve a known bios issue, that prevented the board from resetting on its user-defined FSB if you pressed reset.
    that problem also affected another gigabyte board from a friend of mine.
    other than that, pretty well constructed boards. solid all-round.

    I'm using the Silverstone TJ07 yeah it's watercooled I have a thread all about my baby. The actual build starts around post 100 i think. I have since modified it a bit an then had a water trauma that ruined the video card . I'm over it now and with these new parts I'm going for v3.

    *Also I fixed your quote
