I'm in quite long discussions on another forum about the board I have and a fair few of the people on there are running 3Gb on the same board in dual channel mode with matched pairs. The memory I have was bought as matched pairs so it's not really a problem.

I'm fed up with this board, it really is rubbish. It has a memory timing hole where settings between 723 and another figure I can't remember can't be used with 4Gb and my memory won't run at the higher figure. I'm not running it at underspeed, no sireeee. It has temperamental booting and it's just generally rubbish.

So I'm looking for a replacement socket 775 board that can take my Noctua NH-U12F cooler and work well with 4Gb RAM using Vista x64.
