i've got that board and i love it. you can get it cheap of ebay and its got a ton of features. RDRAM is still the top performer (tho somewat expensive)..however, if you are a major overclocker, then RDram isn't for you cuz 1) RDram isn't a good oc'ing memory 2) 8ihxp has a max fsb of 156...for me, its great cuz i'm not a hardcore OC'er, but otherwise, its a great board!! go for it
