Not being an expert on this issue at all, and just from a regular user standpoint - One thing I'll have to back Chaos upon is that - While doing my research on which board to get (considering my budget/performance), I found out enormous amount of threads on the P5K-E, more importantly, P35 chipset, for OC'ing and performance otherwise. It just kept popping up as exteremly recommended, Unless I need Crossfire - which I didn't. There are posts here were people have out right written that if you need Crossfire, go with X38/X48; No Crossfire, go with P35. And that's what I did.

I'm getting my Q9450 today. UPS is showing "Out for delivery". Today & Tomorrow I'll be setting up the system, configuring software etc. ... by this weekend I should start my first attempt at OC'ing. I'm really just looking for 3.3Ghz - 3.6Ghz. If i can hit any of that, I'll be a happy camper.
