    Don't forget to check whether your current RAM is compatible with the new mobo. And while I'm being a backseat geek, even if it's compatible it might not be fast enough to take advantage of your newfound 64-bit on-die memory controller sweetness.

    I thought you were moving from a P4 -- some of those use DDR2, which isn't compatible with AMD64. Yet. If it's straight-up DDR RAM, you should be fine. Just check the manual when you get it. Or better yet, download the manual from Asus online.
