Hi!

I have been browsing various boards and looking into what type of RAM and motherboard I should get. I'm not too familiar with the benchmarks out there with the last two years worth of RAM, so if someone could paste that information here I'd appreciate it! :D

The Q9450 cost me $415 Cdn. and I hope to pay about $100 ~ $150 for the motherboard. I haven't decided how much I want to put towards RAM, but it is going to be a serious gaming machine that I want to enjoy as much as possible in Gears of War / UT3 / Crysis.

Someone recommended the following motherboards:

ASUS P5E-VM HDMI / DFI X48 mobo

The place where I'd be ordering these components is networksupply.ca.

Thanks for your help!
