I agree, for a small amount of money you can get better RAM like the one monkeysims suggested.

You might want to get a better powersupply, as the ones that come with cases are usually pretty bad.

I think the 800MHz clock frequency will make up for the latency to some extent, don't know how much.

You could probally go with the Asus P5B Motherboard, if you want a cheaper alternative, and I would use that cash to invest in a better PSU, such as this one. http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applicatio...719600&CatId=0
