im sticking with these crucials i got specially for this build for now. only cost me $40 for 4gb and they run 2050mhz on my x58 pretty easy.

i may get 2x2gb of them in a month or 2. then i'll have 6gb in my p55 :D

yeah this is the bitch rig, lol. Main rig is a i7 920 @ 4.0, 4870x2, and an OCZ Vertex 60GB SSD. I do agree with fits though, if the i5 rig had a SSD, it would definitely be " smoother ". Something about that IMC makes this thing zip. :rockout:

WTH would get a Phenom over a i5 750... these are one hell of a CPU. Look at our clocks from this $200 CPU!!!!! And look at my memory OC!!! :rockout:

BAHAHAHHA!!!!

I'm loving the glory right now.

i still dont get how you got it to run in 7 on the p55.

did you install the OS on that board or did you swap it from another board?
