Friend of mine is donating an AM3 Motherboard to me and I need to pick up the best version of this chip possible for overclocking. Poked around with search but couldn't draw any conclusions. Board is a ASUS M4A79T Deluxe AM3 DDR3 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard. Originally used AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz Socket AM3 125W Quad-Core Processor HDZ955FBGIBOX. Are there steppings with this CPU and if so what should I look for for OC? My current set up is an EPOX 9NPA ULtra with a Opteron 1.8Ghz (165 I believe) running 2.8 on air. Looks like new board allows many more OC settings.
