I would recommend the ASUS board. I am a little bit partial to them and they make one of the best if not the best mobo's in my opinion. ABIT also makes a good board too.

The a7n8x-e deluxe mobo is a very nice board. I believe it is the same thing I have but the FSB can go up to 400 mhz. I have been really happy with it too. No problems whatsoever!

I do not know about ocing that well and I am sure there is someone who could give you some info on that question. My advice to you would be to do a search on overclocking here in the forum and also check out this webpage. www.overclockers.com It is a great page with a lot of info on overclocking.
