Help with Gaming/workhorse build

Thanks for the reply. I've incorporated your suggestions. Would 8GB be the proper increase from 4GB then? I'd like to go higher than 4GB if it makes any sense for this config. I chose the regular G.Skill instead of the Ripjaws because I read the performance difference wouldn't be realized in...

*** Official Gigabyte P965-DS3 Thread ***

I have rev 3.3. When I run windows setup it says my 320gig Seagate is 131070 MB. I have my SATA burner on SATA0 and my HDD in SATA1. I've seen a few people indicate that XP should load without the need for SATA drivers. What did I screw up?

Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5 Pro

I'd recommend checking out the Westone UM2. I tried several models/brands and the Westone's had the most balanced output. They're made really well and can use molds.

Army Of Anyone - SnoCore Tour

If you're an STP fan, you'll definitely dig them. You still have the great songwriting from the Deleo's. In addition, Richard Patrick does a great job of creating the best vocals for their songs. I do have to mention that their drummer, Ray Luzier, is incredible.

Oh please. Nadal? Baghdatis? Coria? that's a hoot. Not one person outside of an avid tennis fan has any idea who they are. They get credit as being a professional athlete, not the best the game has ever seen. Tiger Woods...give me names of competitors in his field that will have the...

tennis : sampras or federer...

How is it a weak argument? Are you saying the caliber of competition isn't easier now? The same goes for Tiger Woods...how many that he competes against will have legendary status? It's easy to set records when you have a bunch of intimidated scrubs as opponents.

My BIOS says 2BA1 on boot...which is current according to Soyo's site... their last revision was 11/15. I think I'll really like this motherboard when the sound card works, and no longer pisses me off :)
