well got a new motherboard and did ram test for 5 hours no errors, so i guess it was the mobo.

Could have been the OC that did it. You have to be very careful with OCing stuff, as bad things happen. =( I've been lucky so far =P I've gotten 3.75 out of my standard 3GHz, but I'm at 3.6 right now because I think it might have issues. I'm waiting for thermal paste to put my copper heatsink back on.
haha well im not touching stuff for a while, lets hope asus takes my other mobo back if not im screwed.
well after battling day after day it was the ram that was bad. went threw ram dimms, threw mobos back to the same ram hahaha
cause the dominators were only showin 4 out of 6 gigs and thats what made me think it was mobo, so i returned those dominators, and bought another mobo with it, then errors came back up with those oczs went back and bought the dominators again, ( i think the same 1s i returned) and it still showed 4 out of 6 gigs of ram, then i turned on XMP in bios showed all 6 gigs at 1600mhz, ran memtest for 9+ hours not a single error.
o man you have no idea, it was confusing with the whole 4 gigs not showing up and all, so i ended up damaging a motherboard because of that ( not on purpose) the only thing i need to change now is processor :P and ill have a new rig again, because stuff was leading towards processor and memory controller, but as of right now everything is settled (thank god) there was a few nights where i almost broke down ._. cause i was so lost and i didnt know what to do next. Who knows it could of been a combination of booth mobo and ram. i could have just been that unlucky.
But I would like to thank everyone for putting in there 2 cents. all help is better than no help :)
I know the pain, When my original AMD 1GHz broke it drove me crazy for 4 days. I was getting CRC errors, disk errors, ram errors, ERRORS OF ERRORS!!!! Oh man, and then one day it wouldn't start and the MB gave me the check cpu beep. Well then it all hit at once and I was like OMFG I'm going to stab somebody. Oh man, I was so angry because I can handle failed hardware.... I just hate when it show's symptoms of everything failing. Oh so angry.
