If you search around on abit forums you will find a place to order them, from Abit I believe. If not try biosmedic.com

Just sold my Asus P5B-Deluxe and ordered the Abit IP35 PRO :D \o/
E4300 here @ 3.44GHz with 1.465Vcore and Big Typhoon. Idle/Orthos Large mode per Speedfan in 82F room: 30C/66C. Idle/Orthos Large mode per CoreTemp 0.95 in 82F room: 45C/81C. CoreTemp shows 100C TJunction for this chip. If there is poor contact between the chip and the heat spreader, then my idle temperature should also be higher than the 30 to 45C range.
The maximum temperature as reported by CoreTemp appears to be elevated by 15C. Perhaps that's why CoreTemp shows 100C TJunction, instead of 85C TJunction for many E6xxx CPUs.
Same rig with an E6320 @ 3.4GHz/1.51Vcore yields 54C Orthos as reported by CoreTemp (85C TJunction). With this chip, I can raise Vcore from 1.41 to 1.51, and the maximum temperature under Orthos will only go up by 5C.
Bumping Vcore has a more dramatic effect with the E4300. 1.365Vcore to 1.465Vcore will raise Orthos load temperature form 68C to 82C!
Ok I got my IP35 Pro mobo up and running. I have one of the DD Torture Racks and it took maybe 10 minutes to set this board up. Using straight gear with no additional fans I got it up to 3.2 on air. Stock voltages. I'll be adding WC in the coming weeks once I get all my case fans in (10 in all). I think I might be able to hit 3.8 with WC. The temps I get now are 31C idle, 43C under extreme duress (Orthos, Prime, and Burnin running). The strap is set at 1:1.25 with an FSB of 400. I haven't noticed any droop (okay, mem voltage went from 2.00 to 1.98). That's it. I'll post images of Orthos, Prime, and Everest. BTW, the version of Everest I have (licensed) doesn't support the Bearlake series and sometimes indicates invalid CPU temps (sometimes 256C and sometimes 10C).
FYI....I'm somewhat dissapointed in the C2D compared to my "aging" AN832X 939 mobo with an AMD 4400 X2 (non AM2). 3DMark06 showed only a 1000 point increase. That's a new build versus a year old XP install. I expected better for some reason. At 3.2, I hit 10106 on 3DMark06. I need to add a sig so this will have to due for now:
Abit IP35 Pro
e6420
2 X 1GB Dominator (2.00 volts - 400 FSB - 1:1.25 strap)
eVga 8800 GTS OC 640MB
Antec HE 550
E6320 and IP35-E Overclock
Managed to overclock an E6320 to 3.415GHz (488MHz FSB x 7 multi) with 1.51Vcore. NB, SB, and VTT were bumped up one notch to 1.29, 1.55, and 1.2375 respectively. Memory divider @ 1:1 with 5-4-4-9-2T timing.
Speedfan and CoreTemp 0.95 report 53C under Orthos Large mode (75F ambient). S&M shows 68C with 85C TJunction. The same program reports 100C TJunction on my E4300, which could explain why I'm seeing +14C under load with the 4300. 1M Super Pi time of 14.860 seconds. CPU will boot into Windows at 495MHz FSB x 6 multi, but it is not stable at this level of overclock. I suspect +500MHz FSB is possible with a better chip. My sample appears to have a 495MHz FSB wall.
furball how're you satisfied with IP35-E ?
havent seen much on raid performance in this thread, here's my 3x samsung SATA-II drives on a Raid-0 partition, I think it looks allright :P, I love this board, most stable best all around performer out of all the LGA775 boards I've tried.

Not stable but enough for some bench and 30-40 min priming

Stable without crazy bolts...

I'll test this week the new bios for fsb range 490-500...
I like Abit's FanEQ control. Most boards will not support my 2-pin 120 x 38 mm medium speed Panaflo. This one can vary the speed of a large 120 fan from 50% to 100% depending on CPU and/or case temperature. Northbridge also runs cooler than many P965 boards. PWM and southbridge heat sinks are cool to the touch. You'll probably don't need the extra heat pipe cooler if you have adequate case ventilation.
The board requires no bump in northbridge, southbridge, and VTT to hit 470MHz FSB with the E6320 chip. I also appreciate the extra molex power connector for the GPU and the extra ventilation space just below the PCI-E 16x slot.
Don't worry about not having an all solid caps board. None of the IP35-E's caps get hot at 488MHz FSB. These Japanese caps should last at least seven years...longer than you will care to keep the board.
The LAN on PCI is not a real-world issue because the actual throughput speed is capped by the write speed of the hard drive, currently around 50MB/sec max.
1394 would be nice, but the extra 10% speed boost isn't noticeable to me since I don't move GB of data in/out of the PC.
No compatibility with RAM. Works fine with Crucial, Kingston ValueRAM, OCZ, and Patriot. The board has sufficient voltage to fry any CPU and RAM.
I appreciate a high value, high performance board. The IP35-E lacks some bells and whistles, and may not be able to hit 600MHz FSB like its bigger brother IP35 Pro, but the board does everything that I want it to do today without spending a lot of $.

you can delete 1 post ;D
I'd really like to see how the IP35-E can handle a Kentsfield. Not being able to hit 500 with a Connie is no big deal for me (and besides, it could be the CPU, not the mobo hitting a wall), but I'd like to be able to get 450ish with a quad.
How does this board overclock with this board? Would like to know especially when quads drop in price!
How many of you suffer from the double boot issue???
