Thanks in advance for all your help guys!
 
Also be careful about the ram you select. The IC7 has serious issues running a 5:4 divider with certain types of ram. IME Corsair 3700 2x512 was not stable above 250 fsb. With Buffalo Tech it is stable at 270. 20 FSB mhz for less $. I would suggest buying the ram from a place with a liberal return policy so you can exhange it without penalty if needed.
