Ok, I have all the stuff picked for the next build I'm doing, but I'm iffy on one of my final choices for a board, being this one:
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16813121049
I'm going LGA775, 2x 1GB DDR2667, at least 1x PCI-ex16 and probably the Core 2 Duo EE6400 Conroe(unless prices change later and I could get EE6600), but anyway...I'm having trouble pinning down the board. I've been checking Newegg because I can check the reviews on boards - even though I know I shouldn't let those make my choice. But in looking at the reviews, I'm seeing a lot of complaints about boards not posting with certain RAM, or that they are DOA, or weak BIOSes and other stuff that makes me wonder if these boards are really any good. I've looked at ASUS, BioStar, Abit, DFI, AsRock, AOpen...
This is the memory I want to get:
