Remember that it will continue to cook 5degrees or so while resting, so determine the amount of fineness you want and pull it out a bit early. I prefer to have the roast come up to room temp (covered) on the counter and then put into a preheated oven. I also start the oven at 400 then immediately turn down to 325. If convection, go a bit lower ... 300F.
For medium rare, aim for 125-130 degrees F, and a resting time of 30 minutes or so. But you might want to consider this genius recipe too: http://www.food52.com/recipes/15387_ann_serannes_rib_roast_of_beef
