I think I fried my brain shopping for a motherboard. I need an ATX board with an IEEE 1394 port and full compatibility with ATI video cards. That leaves me with the ultra-finnicky 965 Intel boards that require very specific RAM. I searched for RAM on Newegg.com and found a measly five choices. At least it takes the guesswork out of RAM shopping.
