It just means that it hasn't been tested to work on this mobo by ASUS. G.Skill makes good stuff, it's in my box. You have a nice set up there Pig. Awards

So I am looking at a larger mid-tower. I am looking at a Lian Li that looks pretty nice and is almost as big as a full sized and it will fit in my desk's little cubby hole. I need the case to be under 21" tall and less than 22" deep. Would I be able to get everything I want into a case like this? Any recommendations? I thought the one below lookednice. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811112320 Lian-Li PC-K63 Model Brand - LIAN LI Series - Lancool Model - PC-K63SpecType - ATX Mid Tower Color - Black Case Material - Steel Motherboard Compatibility - ATX / Micro-ATX / Mini-ITXExpansion External 5.25" Drive Bays 3 Internal 3.5" Drive Bays 6 Internal 2.5" Drive Bays 4 Expansion Slots 8 Front Ports Front Ports USB 3.0 x 1 / USB 2.0 x 1 / e-SATA x 1 / HD Audio Cooling System 120mm Fans 1 x 120mm Blue LED Rear Fan 140mm Fans 2 x 140mm Blue LED Front Fans2 x 140mm Top Fans Physical Spec Dimensions 20.87" x 8.46" x 20.87" Manufacturer Warranty Parts 1 year limited Labor 1 year limited Awards
