This is almost exactly what I have just set-up, except I've gone for
the 3200+ 64 bit processor. It runs fine. I can't compare to others of
the same sort of spec, but it is a vast improvement on my 1800+ setup.
Still got to play qith Q-Fan or Cool n Quiet.

The thing I can't find, but I haven't looked that hard yet, is how to
check what settings the memory is setup for. The Corsair is rated for
2-2-2-5, but whereas it used to be obvious in the bios when you
changed to manual, it is less obvious which setting is which on the
A8V.
