well will see how it is when the parts arrive and i get to build it up(shiny quad core mmm) looking at reviews on the ram it seems pretty good

you'll probably be ok if its not arias own brand stuff since you can always send it to the manufacturer if its faulty ;)

The only asrock 'dual sata 2' mobo i can find is this one http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.as...eDual-SATA2&s=

this is what the op called the board, It's not the intel / amd hybrid monster board.

<edit> Found a pic just to show the daughter board (dobo? :D ) in all it's huuuugeness, here.

Did you ever see anything so ugly and stupid?? :sick:
And people still buy Asrock boards? :shocked:

P.S. Deathmaker: surely that's DOH!bo :dozey:

yes people do still buy asrock boards, inparticular those who wish to upgrade to C2D and have already forked out good money for a competent AGP graphics card. In this case the DUAL boards are a viable compromise.
