OCZ Obsidian 4GB 1600

Anyone have any suggestions for other products or Tips for this particular build?
Also has anyone found a review for the MOBO , I haven't and I've looked for days?
 
I'd suggest taking a look at the Gigabyte P55A-UD3P. One main difference I can notice right away is that it has SATA 6GB/s support. I haven't seen any reviews for the P55-USB3 board yet; it must be a new release.

I suggest going with this 4GB G.Skill DDR3 1600 kit. No rebates to hassle with, very good reviews, and runs at a lower voltage (1.5v).
 
The usb3 is a new release. It's basically the same as the ud3P minus the sata3 controller. It still has usb 3.0.

I definately think that the ram is a good deal, thanks for the link. The Mobo however I'm not sure that the difference between the USB3 and the UD3P is worth the cash.
