I know you've already bought it... but to everyone else I strongly
recommend not buying this motherboard.  The 4+2 DIMM configuration[*] is
sub-optimal and you can get 4+4 DIMM configuration from Tyan (K8S Pro)
and other makers.

[*] I fully know the bad history of Opteron 4+2 DIMM configurations...
but can't speak publically about it. :-(
