Click to expand... My bad, I guess I don't really have a budget. Though the current box is a BE-2350 and cheap AM2 mobo and needs an upgrade badly. Micro/regular doesn't matter, at least 4 dimms for a max of at least 32gb. Lsv

I would make sure if they are shipping with the newest bios, since I believe you need a bios update to be able to use a vishera chip
