Hi all, I have recently ordered a p5q pro turbo second hand for my q9650 based core 2 quad build I'm doing, and although I know this is a very good motherboard in regard to overclocking etc, upon googling about what ram to buy for it I'm seeing the this particular mobo appears to be pretty fussy about memory. I know that it's maximum capacity is 16gb, but I'm not sure I'll need all that, so I was going to to get 2 4gb modules and then buy 2 more sticks of the same ram if I wanted to add more at a later date, but I'm also seeing that these sometimes won't post with 4 modules installed apparently, are there specific makes and models that are known to work perfectly on this mobo and by the same token are there ones that are known to cause problems, I guess what I'm really asking is have I made a bad call choosing this board or am I worrying over nothing. Any advice would be very much appreciated
