If i wanted a monday/tuesday delivery i could have went "super saver" for free, but insted i paid for friday delivery so they can suck my dick.

Yeah, i've always gotten a refund on delivery if it didn't arrive on time - if you don't get that you're not doing it right

Parts finaly arived today took me fucking hours to rebuild my machine though. New mobo is bigger than the old one so had to cut new holes in my case for my power and sata cables, also the 4 pin on my old one is now a 8 pin so had to enlarge the hole. Thankfully my CPU cooler fit the ADM3 socket too, although now turned though 90 dregs

Gota say though im very happy so far

One question though, my mobo was running my memmory at 9,9,9,24 so i manualy set it to what the memory is suposed to run at 7,7,7,24 Should i have to do that or should the mobo have done that itself?

25C underload o.O

Normally if you set the memory to auto it should pick the manufactures standard settings depending on the FSB. Don't always work though. 25°C under load? That's not right, that's pretty much room temperature! Maybe you need a BIOS update?

Riiiiiiight, had a wee look and Crucial do not sell the kit you bought. They sell a 4gb set at 666-24 timings and a 6gb kit at 777-24. Check to make sure which sticks you have and their real speed. Use CPUz to check what they are reporting as the SPD settings. Most motherboards will not use the SPD settings directly unless they are one of the "we've tested these and know they work" brand kits and they can't test them all so fret not about that. Also, pay attention to the voltage required. The ebuyer site says 1.65 but DDR3 standard is 1.5 so they might be undervolted at the moment.

Can't think of anything else at the moment.

Right, well I'm not sure about the tRAS going from 24 to 3 but the rest seem sensible also it does require a voltage bump to support that speed so check that your mobo is delivering the juice.
