Thanks for your input.
I’ll probably add another 4GB RAM for ..
dude: Yea, I want to get my own OS for it. I might dual boot or something. If I have say, 32-bit XP and 64-bit Vista, the extra memory just won’t be recognized in 32-bit, right? It shouldn’t cause any stability problems, I hope.
one more, dude: How did you know that this motherboard had 4 slots? Were you just familiar with it or was there something in the description that gave it away? The RAM is 2x 2GB.
And of course I’ll be putting some games on it ;)

It could be a bit cheaper, but you’re doing the right thing installing the OS by yourself. You’re ok.

Looks fantastic to me. I would make sure you know which operating system it comes with. If you’re getting that extra 4GB of RAM you’ll need a 64 bit OS. I’m sure you knew that. Also, make sure the 4GB of RAM are in 2GB sticks. You’ve only got 4 slots on that motherboard. Hope you’re getting some games with this :)
