Hey guys, I have a question about a new system I'm building:

I'm interested in picking up Crucial 667 5300, but I'm worried about whether or not the P5W DH Dlx will be able to boot from it -- the voltage listed under specs is 2.2v and I know most mobos supply 1.8v by default. Should I pick up a stick of something w/ a lower V req for booting purposes, or is it ok to use that ram?

Secondly, I want some room to OC, so is this ram good for that purpose or should I look for something else? If something else is better, what would you recommend? Just FYI, I'm getting a 6600 C2D for this setup.

Thanks in advance for your help.
