because I am verifying that when I go to turn it on, I wont have any other problems haha. I should have come here first but it's too late for that now =/. I know now for next time.

if there are any problems you will get a boot error code

some time in the future I will probably upgrade to the i5, I am a bit concerned that the memory won't work for my motherboard when I get it. The problem is it is already on its way here. my budget was around 800.

the RAM should work fine. why were you worried about it?

Because the first set of ram did not fit so I ordered the one specified on the post, but after doing a bit more research I found that the ram and motherboard websites don't list each other on their compatibility lists. That is the main reason I posted here, but since I made a profile here I just decided to post everything and ask what people thought.

Should I bother to overclock? If so, is it difficult to do? I only have the stock heat sink.
