I'm planning to upgrade my desktop to C2D and am picking motherboard for it. I prefer ASUS and I guess P5Q model line is actual now, but there are quite a bunch of specific models, so it's hard enough to pick. Are there any positive experience with those mobos (I.e. no problems with onboard NIC, ATA/SATA controllers and other stuff)? I'm planning to install 7.1 i386. Also I'm planning to install 4GB RAM there - I'll just get my 3.25 or 3.5, right (I think I've heard of some freezes with 4GB)? -- Dmitry Marakasov . 55B5 0596 FF1E 8D84 5F56 9510 D35A 80DD F9D2 F77D amdmi3@amdmi3.ru ..: jabber: amdmi3@jabber.ru http://www.amdmi3.ru
