so w/ 754 i can't run dual in line xms 3200?

p.s. this is my first build and reading some of the moboard reviews for 939 they say it is hard to flash the moboard etc... Is this going to be a problem?

yes, but newegg doesn't sell the retail versions, they sell the oem ones, and that only has a 7day warranty through newegg. uke:

I'm glad you guys are willing to help me out (really fast replies, alot better than xoxide)

I'm not going to be really ocing, and I will probably add watercooling within the next few months.

Plus the only thing I do that is really cpu hogging is having multiple applications open at once, such as having 3 mozillas open, 3dsmax, and some modding programs. For the price difference, do you think I really need it?

3200+/3000+ will suffice in my humble opinion , not really worthy to go for 3500+ CPU.

if you add WC you can simply increase the HTT and use dividers to keep memory running near 200Mhz with the tightest timings; from what I've seen, every S939 3000+/3200+ will reach 3500+ speeds, stable.

most will even go higher, reaching 3800+ !! speeds

winchester = 90nm = cooler and higher OC, little bit better then the other cores when clocked at the same speed: http://www.madshrimps.be/gotoartik.php?articID=230
