Im just setting up my UD3P right now and I have a quick question about the RAM slots. Should I used the first set (yellow) or can I use the second set (red)? I ask this because if theres no difference I'll use the second pair so the airflow from the Dominator fan is getting the NB sink a bit as well.

+rep for a quick reply, im literally right in the middle of assembling the system. Thx!

EDIT: I have a sneaking suspicion I should use the yellows just to avoid potential issues... ?

Yeah, use the yellow channels. That's channel 1, and you will get the best performance out of them.

Does anyone know how to make the ACHI bios load faster, or skip it?

That load is making me barf
It takes them around 15 seconds to detect the Sata drives

Turn AHCI off in BIOS. Really, the only thing you loose is hot-swappable SATA drives.

EDIT: Keep in mind, though, that turning AHCI off will likely cause Windows to blue screen. You will likely have to reinstall windows after changing a setting like that.

In BIOS go to Integrated Peripherals and disable AHCI-mode in the first(top) option.
Also take a look at the Onboard SATA/IDE Ctrl mode option almost at the bottom.

Disabling AHCI is not a solution.
