RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL (8GB Total)

 

Processor: Intel Core i7-930 Bloomfield 2.8GHz LGA 1366 130W Quad-Core Desktop Processor BX80601930

 

Included but probably not important. Just being exact:

Probably won't know till you try.

 

I'm guessing that the intel build will have a better shot at (1) working and (2) being stable than the AMD build having attempted a quad core xeon build that is rock solid stable and given up on a phenom build that was tough to get up and running and impossible to keep stable. About a year ago, Gigabyte branded motherboards were your best choice, I'm not sure if that is still true. Look up your individual components on the hardware compatibility list here:
