TRIM is an function that essentially de-fragments storage on SSD drives in the background when the computer is not not very busy. Programs intended to defrag harddrives are not for SSDs. Some SSD brands work with TRIM, but others do not. That is probably given in the vender's specs.
Network Interface Card.. Actually on-board describes a circuit built onto the motherboard. About all current mobos have at least one, many have two.
***** QVL list ****
Qualified Vender Lists of other components that have been tested to be compatible. These list are usually on the web of motherboard site (or other), specifying things like cpu, memory brand and configurations.... Many products may not be on list because vender has not (yet?) made the tests.

I trust you will really enjoy this new build.

That ram works best in sets of three so 12gb makes sense?

Not sure if you meant this to be a question, but the 12GB are in a set of three: 3 x 4GB

GoFaster2, you are definitely going faster! Thanks for sharing - I am pretty excited and your good results with similar specs are very encouraging! Your system scored a 7.5 out of 7.9 on win 7 index. What exactly does that mean, and if I wanted to measure the same on my system, can you provide instructions or a link to description?
