This is a good entry level SLI board. I do not have personal experience, but the word is the it is O.Clock friendly. I have the model below, which I don't recommend, the P5NSLI. The P5NE uses a different (nVidia 6) chipset then the one I have. I'm returning my board for either a newer version (Rev. 3) or an upgrade to the P5NE.
 
My .02 cents isn't worth that much as a first timer, but I think this board is great.
I researched it and applied what I learned and have had no problems. It booted on first try and I have been playing with overclocking for the past 5 weeks since I got it. I've been able to take it to 3.15 stable but no further, maybe due to no southbridge cooling, I don't know.

dude first of all its a great mobo, i have one with a e6600 and everythin, but i got 2 gigs or ram the n 4, i also run a bfg geforce 7600 graphics card in dual sli mode, my comp is crazy fast and installed windows in under 10 minutes, no need to do any overclockin, in all reality it could slow you down or crash your system witth al lthe specs outa wack just my opinion tho, ive done overclockin, not needed. peace hope i helped :p
