so i'll be in all sorts of prob if hav to buy the P5N32-E SLi
4K for a stick !!!!! he is looting you dude ! Even Kingston 1Gb DDR2 667 is around 2900-3,000 or so.
Btw may i ask why 6300 and not 4300 ? Virtualization ???

hey what's the max fsb ur P5N goes darklord??
500 FSB is piece of cake.Just need to take care of the insane amount of heat it generates
Its bloody hot chipset

Go for P5w DH ...u will have the Right balance of Features & OC capablity
P5WDH is solid,fast platform although OCing wouldnt be great or so.Newer revision P5WDH clock upto 450 but its difficult to get there easily
At stock though,it is STILL the fastest chipset [975X] compared to 965,680i,650i etc etc...No one comes close to it.But tighter chipset latencies sacrifice OC potential.

is Zion really a good option for OC'n???
Zion is not known for making OC friendly RAM
