NO!!! NO ASUS, THAT BOARD SUCKS!! Trust me, that board is the most ANNOYING THING ever!!! Get the MSI Neo4 SLi board, it has a 32x PCIe bus that is split into two 16X busses, so it is full speed on both. Also, the FSB trance is regulated by the integrated Hypertransport controllers on the AMD chip itself. The motherboard will just allow for certain speeds. The ASUS allows for 2000MHz because it uses that AI NOS (the only good feature on that board) but I couldn't get my FSB past 1,750 ("stable" at this point) using the hypertransport frequency multiplier.
