I'm pretty settled on the PB5 and E6400 CD2 combo. The 965s are cheap and every bit as fast as 975 boards, seems like the extra cache isn't worth the dough either. Currently I have some Corsair PC6400 (800) in my cart, but I haven't found much on the RAM to go with my desired setup. Is there a specific chip that is desired (Like Mushkin 3500 had the magic)?

http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16820145590 is what I'm currently looking at, almost exclusively on Corsair's reputation.
 
I went with the Corsair DDR2 800 2x 1GB sicks with 5-5-5-12 timings. I'm at school right now and don't have access to newegg.......But you can search the egg and you can find them. I probably spent to much on it 280 before rebate and 240 after. But its good RAM and i like it so far.
 
I went with the Corsair PC2-6400C4. I am very happy with it. I went with the C4 modules because I figured I could loosen then timings for a higher RAM overclock. However, it turned out that that wasn't necessary.
 
I went with the Crucial 10th Anniversary. Right now it's running at 800 mhz 4-4-4-12. Haven't tried to run it at 3-3-3 at this speed yet. For $230 it's great RAM.
