I've determined that I am not going to be overclocking due to the fact I can't afford to risk any damage to my system...money is too tight. So what is good for overclocking is a moot point right now.
I plan on keeping the board for a minimum of another year. I only look at building or upgrading my system once a year, around tax return time. In truth, I will most likely run this board until I have to replace it due to failure or lack of compatability with available replacement or upgrade parts.
With the 4 GB I've been running, I seem to do fine for what I have now. However, with the games I currently play (Civ 4 and Sins of a Solar Empire), on large maps things get laggy. I'm not sure if that is due to lack of a powerful graphics card or a lack of raw power in the machine. I'm guessing that it is a little bit of both.
I anticipate replacing my current RAM, and getting two matched pairs. That way I will have 4 DIMMs of RAM that all visibly match, for aesthetic reasons. I have a clear case that I like to show off, with LED fans and the like. The RAM I am looking to buy will have LED effects on it as well. I'm aware that there will be almost no difference performance-wise than If I just bought another pair of RAM to add to what I have now.
