I am getting ready to order this board from Newegg. Does anybody have any memory suggestions? I will be getting 2GB PC2 6400…I see a lot of OCZ on this thread, should that be my choice? I am wanting to avoid memory that won’t boot because bios voltage is set wrong for memory.

Don't let that be a deciding factor. That is so simple, just set it to factory vdimm when you first get the board. Until you get to 400FSB or higher, you won't need to worry about upping the voltage. It is designed to run @ DDR2-800 @ stock voltage, that's what it is rated for.

Honestly, I don't see the board being picky about RAM anymore with the 04-- series bios. Just get what's good and at a good price. OCZ had a huge sale on RAM when this thread was first started, hence the massive amount of OCZers on here.

Hey guys,

My new Scythe Ninja heatsink just arrived and before I put it on I wanted to know if it would be worth it to remove the stock NB cooler and put some arctic silver on it, then re-attach it.

Think it would help at all? Or should I just leave it stock?

Asus is known to do a crap-ass job on the thermal paste, not to mention it isn't AS5.

I DEFINATELY give a thumbs up to doing that.

Do you guys think if I needed to save money, go with the P5N-E SLI instead of the P5N32-E SLI. I am in a tight spot for money but still want to be ableto get maybe a 3.2Ghz 24/7 OC on a E6600. Think this board could do it?

Van, for E6600 u should have no problem to hit 3.2GHz with P5N-e. I got this board with E6700, rock solid @ 3.6GHz. But not stable after that. And I would say P5N32-e is a better board just cost a bit more.

+100mv reduces vdroop for the vcore.

1.45v w/o +100mv = 1.37v-1.41v
1.45v w/ +100mv = 1.44v-1.46v
