I never liked any of those brands......There is this Foxconn board with 945 chipset(cant remember the model) core series or something which has 1066FSB+667 Ram speed and somewhat good overclocker compared to the other competitors....Cheap too

Is this the one..? Pity it supports only 2gigs of RAM

Foxconn 45CM-S
# Socket T (LGA775)
# Chipset: Intel® 945GC + ICH7
# Front Side Bus: 533/800/1066(oc)MHz FSB
# Memory: Dual channel DDR2 400/533/667 x 2 DIMMs, Max 2GB
# VGA on Die: Integrate
# Expansion Slots: 1 x PCIe x16, 1 x PCIe x1, 2 x PCI

Ah,one more thing.When FOXCONN Quantum Force comes out,ASUS will get a huge competition for the ROG.Foxconn got some serious OCers like Shimano to their team from ASUS too.

[lahirumam]

Pls Note that Mobo supports only 2GB's of RAM mate...
I see that as a huge disadvantage considering the price of Memory these days...

2gig is more than enough for me

2GB - More than adequate
4GB - Bonus!
8GB - Too rich

 

[zCexVe]

Anyway do you think a guy who buys that board will likely go over 2GB?

Yeah....But in the long run...An extra gig or two of RAM won't do your PC any harm...will it..??
At present...yeah..I agree 2GB is more than enough....

True machan....but with the current prices you can buy memory by saving your lunch money...!! what a 1gig shud cost no more than 2500 right...?

 

[chanster]

It wont do any harm and it wont be useful as well...that 2.7k piece will just be there doing nothing....well to me.......

The funniest part will be ppl installing 4G and complaining that they are faulty because XP dont detect iG
