Heard People had Problems With the ASUS Overclocking. I Plan On Overclocking in a year. So I Want a good Motherboard.

Only thing i cant decide on is the 975 vs 965 i googled it couple people said 965 All the way other's said there 965 Sucked go with 975 maybe there's were messed up I dont know.

I am a Gamer and its kinda hard for me to run these new games with my Processor. Since its a Dual Core.
 
What about the CPU cooler? If you buy a 975 OEM CPU it won't even come with the stock puny cooler.

yea I might have to find one on Amazon or just go with the 965 Which has a Code for 15 dollars off
 
The EVO has a much better CPU contact plate than the Plus, there are vast gaps between the heat pipes which you need to stuff with TIM, the EVO's contact plate is flat.

I would go with the EVO :)
