Running like a champ

I loaded Ultimate Edition 3.4 Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 based) and it's extremely fast on this system. The UE 3.4 identified everything correctly and no problems. Dual booting a MythTV installation and it runs with no issues either. Also very fast. I'm quite happy.

Got this as a barebones kit, with amd phenom II and 2- cosair 4GB ram, seagate 1.5 tb HD, great deal but can't get the mobo to take both ram chips when running windows 7 64 bit. tested both ram to work on both slots. saw that the 4GB from consair is NOT supported by this board on their site. can't even put the 2nd chip in without BSOD.
