motherboard: GA-965P-DS3
I'm looking at upgrading to a GA-EP45-UD3R for a number of reasons, mostly because the Q8200 doesn't work well on the DS3.
The board can overclock great, I had a E6750 (in dad's computer now) that I had OC'd to a 1500 FSB (3 GHz from 2.66 stock) with no voltage bumps or anything, worked great. Board is pretty much bombproof. Be a great mid-level board for somebody just getting into the foray of overclocking or anything like that.
$80 OBO. Retailed for $120 when it was new, I've had it for 2 years, used it how it was built to be used. Right now it has a BETA bios (F14b) to "support" my Q8200 (which it does a chippy job of doing at best) but it should be able to be backflashed to F13 and support anything up the Q6600 on a solid BIOS. I was using F12 to OC the 6750.
