So, I am purchasing a new mobo (EVGA nForce 680i SLI NVIDIA Socket 775 ATX Motherboard / Audio / PCI Express / SLI / Dual Gigabit LAN / S/PDIF / USB 2.0 & Firewire / Serial ATA / RAID) to go with my new build and I had a few questions about this supported ram. Apparently this mobo will run 4 gigs of dual channel 1200Mhz DDR2 (SLI Ready) ram. Are these sticks even out on the market yet? Also, it says the mobo will run 4 gigs at 32 bit, but it will run 8 gigs at 64 bit. Is 64 bit even on the market yet either? I think this mobo is way ahead of it's time. What do you think? Thanks.
Is this even out on the market yet?

That is referring to a 64bit CPU. 32bit CPUs can't address more than 4GB of RAM.
There is PC2 7200 on the market. This is the cheapest price I've seen so far on SLI ready labelled stuff http://www.clubit.com/product_detail.cfm?itemno=A4308102

Ok, so if I decide to go with this memory ( OCZ OCZ2N9002GK 2GB Memory Kit DDR2-900 PC2-7200 Platinum XTC NVIDIA SLI ) my only question is about compatability. The motherboard I'm looking at says it can run 800Mhz or 1200Mhz sli certified ram. This apparently is 900Mhz sli. Do you think there will be a compatability issue, or should it be able to run anything inbetween 1200 and 900? Or, should I just get some non-sli certified 800 and wait for the 1200 sli certified to come out? Thanks!
