I this board any good for OC'ing

[Silver Fox]

I'm getting ready to start putting togher my new system, and I was hopeing that people could answer some questions about the Motherboard I'm looking at. The current board I'm conserding is an ASUS "P5AD2-E Premium" i925XE Chipset Motherboard For Intel LGA 775 CPU .

Questions I was hopeing could be answered:
1. Will this board be able to support a non EE LGA775 chip.

I'm getting conflicting answers from several sites. Mainly Intel says that with the 925XE chip that the board can support any LGA775 chip, and everywhere else says only LGA775 EE chips.

2. How good will this board be for OC'ing

My current plan is to keep this system stock for a year (by then the warenty runs out, and there is newer/better tec out there ) then if the price is right jump up to a 1066MHz FSB chip, and see how far I can get the OC up to.

I will say in advance thanks for any help that can be provided

that board is one of the best 775 boards. it can handle normal LGA775 CPUs. what chip are you getting? 560 should be able to do 4.2+ghz on air.

I'm looking at a Intel LGA 775 Pentium 4 530 3.0 GHz, 800MHz FSB, 1MB L2 Cache, Hyper Threading Technology for right now (it has a prescott core). Like I said I'll run this at stock for a year, then eather OC it to see what i can do with it, and/or get a 1066 MHz FSB chip and OC that. As for cooling I'm working on a wattercooling setup (parts of a junor Electrical and Mechanical Eng. thesis) which I will be using at the time of my OC'ing.

that should OC decently. i don't see any real need for 1066Mhz FSB CPUs as it doesn't offer much benefit over an overclocked 800FSB CPU.

I'm only looking at the 1066Mhz FSB chip as an option a year down the road when I start my OC. As for a question that I forgot to ask,

3. Is there any other board that anyone would sugest.

I want the board to have a PCI-express x16 slot, the intel 925xe chipset, and a LGA775 socket.
