After waiting a long time for the BlackOps and getting pretty impatient, I finally handed in the towel and went with this board. Got machine back from rebuild and upgrade today and are now running the P5E64 WS Evolution and a QX9770. Running along nicely at 4.6 for now but will wait for new ram sticks (OCZ PC3-16000 2x2048MB 2000MHz) before any benching... An easy board to OC, no fancy stuff (which I hate anyway, e.g. ROG series) and seems rock solid.
