I know the board supports 8x(p4g8x) and 2 rams of the same kind. Do I also need the rest two rams the same as well? What is the significance of making all the same RAMs? Does DDR operate different than SDram where I can mix all kinds of mb of ram? The reason I'm looking towards this board-is that it supports 8x-which will eventually kill the 4x. I have had a hard time during my last upgrade of 3dcard on my previous motherboard-ASUS CUBX4400X where the board only supports up to 2x. ANd finding Geforce2 or higher is a problem. I found one card from AOPEN-geforce 2 ti 6mbd ddr. Its ok. Are there other alternative boards with 8x? or is there a board that has the max support for DDR-not SD-so that I can upgraqde it whenever necessary.
