I was planning on running raid later on when i get enough money. i was also wondering if this would overclock well, whatever information you have would be greatly appreciated

thanks alot

If you want to save some money, go with a 2.4c if you can get one. It overclocks pretty well.

That's a good mobo. If you want to save a few bucks, get the 2.6C, it's a good bargain. The 2.6C is a good match for a lot of the available RAM too.

hi moose!!!

looks good

but i'd get the 2.6c for $37 less
and spend that $ on a i875 board like the ic7 for $120
