IM using the x38 version of that board. id say it worked just as good as any other motherboard. as far as memory goes im using G.Skill ddr2 800, though since your using an x48 chip, probably better going with a higher speed ram

Carefull if you are using a 4800 card, even the X2. Those DFI boards have some fatal issues with those cards that arent fixed until a BIOS update.

It's not just DFI, certain X48 boards from other brands are also affected... It's not "Fatal" - The card just doesnt' work until the Buis has been updated. And the updated Bios is freely available from DFI...

------------------------------ Which Chip? Well, it depends on which set of thieving b@stardz you choose to support: The ones who use insider trading to enrich themselves while running their company into the ground, or the ones who illegally pay vendors to not support the first group.
