Its in the same £140 bracket, and seems to have got decent reviews. Plus - I believe it has 775 mounting holes - so i can reuse my cooler
Just wondering what pushed you towards it? I think its got a good feature set but not sure if its a good pairing for overclocking? I guess that its now mostly to do with the chip, but dont really want to hamstring the CPU with a less than competent OC mobo.
