Yeah, we can't both be wrong.
Just a question Thunderer. Why 8gb ram? You planning on using a server o.s? Even Vista 64-bit can only use 3.5gb.

Thank you for your opinions. Did state that I need ram expandable up to 8GB due to the fact that nowadays motherboards are somewhat standard that so I just said it. Am not intended to use 64Bit windows, eventhough they need 4GB, but in the future I might upgrade the Ram.

I think that am not going for the Striker Extreme since it does not support 1066Mhz of Supported RAM speeds.
So any other suggestions that have DDR2 supported at 1066Mhz? |

It does support 1066mhz DDR2 natively, you just have to 'tell' it in the AI suite software that comes with the board, this isn't a form of overclocking the ram.
It also supports SLI-memory natively (without telling it) upto 1200mhz.
