The Expert is very nice however note that the DIMMs are not in a way that, IMO, isnt ideal for memory coolage.

In most cases that'll be ok... however consider OCz VX or Mushkin Redline ... even with heatspreaders they NEED direct active cooling Dont get me wrong, nothing wrong with the Expert, very nice board ... *I* just dont prfer that placement of the DIMMs
