Is there anything bad about this board?
For people who have this board, what ram do you run in it? GIGABYTE GA-965G-DS3 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128018

It's a great board, but the only major con is that it doesnt support SLI.

I'll never be able to afford two graphic cards anyways, one will do just fine for me.

Will this ram work with this board? On the memory support list for the board it doesnt list it.
CORSAIR XMS2 1GB (2 x 512MB) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145566

It should do, Rambo has a 2GB kit of the same memory running as something like DDR2-900.
