^^ yeah I noticed that. But I feel what's the point spending so much on a 4GB 1333mhz cl9 latency rams.
btw, could you please put up a disclaimer about LGA 1156 first revision of FOXCONN sockets destroying the socket and the processor due to improper contact?

BTW, emphasize that its just a heads up, nothing to worry/panic about. Last thing we want this is this issue becoming a source for another fanboyism. Not that I don't like amd or anything like that, but any form of fanboyism must be curbed from the start before it gets out of hand!!

I did not take any credit for the above guide. I clearly mentioned the source and some minor changes added so as to help someone build a rig.

I am not a fanboy and i am not spreading fanboyism. I am new to this forum and not well acquainted with the rules.

Extremely sorry for my misconduct

Mods please close this thread

Alternatives with reference to graphics card. Lot of competition there. Maybe motherboards too.
