    OCZ SLI ready RAM and Mobo.

    You might consider a dfi board as they work with ocz on ram with their boards...ocz has always had very good results on dfi boards...plus you get the option of fine tuning your ram on their boards due to a very elaborate bios...set it to auto or tweak your self to death.......
