don't go with 1st generation ddr3, those were the ones that required 1.8V and were oc'd to begin with.
Just make sure that they will work at 1.5Volts.
I have one of these boards. I hate it. When it runs, it runs great. but my board takes 10 minutes to boot... there's definately something seriously wrong with mine. I would work on it more, but it's running now and I don't feel like waiting ten minutes for it to reboot everytime I need to do something.
I think this is the only board I've ever had that I would definately go with the QVL for memory.
