Do not go for Striker Extreme!
It's a sucker of all 680i board.
Rather then wasting your money on that board, it'll be better if you buy DFI Lanparty UT NF680i LT SLI-T2R.

Striker Extreme has been numerously reported with a lot of bugs and problems that until today hasn't been solved.

is it not the EVGA 680i board have have problem of killing rams??

I've heard the same thing.
My votes still goes with the Lanparty 680i, no matter how picky it is, in performance, it'll perform better than the others.

DFI being very picky on PSU's is because they want those low ripple state psu to be used on their motherboard, so that you have a very current running through your PC. smile.gif

True.. True..

Anyone wanna sell their 680i chipset based motherboard? I'm going to give the board to empire23 for the modification.
Going to make solderings that is so perfect until the manufacturer won't notice we have modded the motherboard. tongue.gif
