More Information

Right now I'm running an ancient p.o.s., and I'm finally looking to put together my first home-build. While reading though Tom's recent P45 review, the XMP feature caught my eye. I'm far from an entusiast, and I'm really not that interested in learning to OC. But XMP sounded like a really nice middle-ground. But I'm having a tough time finding boards that specifically mention it. Is XMP a standard feature on all (P43?)/P45/x38/x48 boards or is that something the manufacturers hold back for their high-end products? I'm only looking to spend ~$100USD on the mobo, so if XMP is only available on high-end boards I can shift my focus elsewhere.

Any help would be greatly appriciated!
