Default asus a8n32-sli memory question

Well, I bit the bullet and bought an asus A8N32-SLI today. Kudos to the people at monarch for sending it 2nd day air for the price of 5 to 7 day ground. How will this compair to the DFI? Will the ram I currently have (pc4000 2-2-2-8 at 3.3) be able to run well on a board at those speeds on 3.2 volts? Will it be able to do it if I slack off on the timings? Any other way to feed it more volts? Oczs voltage booster dosent work on these boards... Anything else I should know?

Thanks,
Dazed

well the A8N32 is awesome first off, overclocking is painless and if you want more volts I think it should be able to supply it. Anyways that motherboard will currently beat any DFI motherboard in any test, I think Maximum PC did an article and the A8N32 beat it in all tests, like 3dmark etc. Of course the same CPU, hard drives N stuff
