P5Q-E vs P5E Deluxe

[Dopekitten]

Alright, so i'm trying to decide whether to get a P5E Deluxe or the P5Q-E. Price isn't an issue, i can get either (but not something like the rampage formula). I'm planning on getting a Q9450 CPU, and trying to overclock it to 3.6ghz+ at the very least so that means, at the very least 450 FSB.

So, i'm wondering, is there any difference in the overclocking abilites of these board (Also, as a side note, if i get the P5E Deluxe, i will flash it with the Rampage Bios)

Like, I'm looking for a board that can possibly go to 500 FSB (a fan on the NB is fine if that is what is required)

Also, would there be anything significantly lacking in the P5Q-E's bios when compared the the rampage formula's BIOS?

Well, even P965 can do 500Mhz FSB. It depends on your skills, parts and luck (cpu). To a good overclocker, chipsets mean nothing.

The P5Q-E has some decent looking cooling on it. I can't say more as mine is still on order.

The deluxe has a 16 phase PVM, the 'E' has 8.
