Id swap the corsair for some geil 6400c4 then get a better cpu cooler like the tuniq tower or a scythe ninja. Check my sig I can highly recommend these components.

personally i stick with crosair especially with all the posts about geil problems on her recently but then others like guy above swear by the geil

The geils 30quid cheaper + if the geil dont work rma it. Not sure if the corsair works with the ds3 mine had f5 bios when i got it, the geil defo works with this board though.
You might consider getting the 6400 c2d for the x8 multi then run the ram at 400mhz = 400x8=3.2ghz which is almost guarenteed
