I like the board, but I wouldn't recommend for someone without a E6600-X6800 as a primary system with 24/7 use. With 1.5v on the NB being the max safe voltage, this puts it in the same category as the 975X boards for max 24/7 FSB overclocks. 1.5vnb will not get you even 450FSB in most cases. Combine that with the performance results it seems the only advantage of this board is the asynchronis memory clocks. I use the board for testing cpu's & memory now. Trying out the IN9 32 Max in hopes it will replace my P5W DH as my primary gaming box.
