I'm running the ram from my old x58 board in my friends 8350 now so, the ram is good, just my x58 board is what went bad, after 7 years of running an i7 920 at 4.2ghz and one year of x5650 at 5ghz I'm not too mad it went out, it served me well for a long time.
I was looking at those Chinese mobos, just wanted to see if I could get a used name brand board before resorting to the Chinese one, if at all.
