If u want to OC,then definitely go for a P35 board like the ABIT IP35 PRO or GIGABYTE P35 DS3L/DS3R or ASUS P5K-E WIFI.

Asus G33 P5K-VM gets me to 3.6 GHz with enough volts. I run at 3.0GHz @1.25 Volts (my vid) with idle temps 37 deg. max. Anandtech looked at oc g33 boards, and found the P5K-VM to be pretty good. Should be just as fast as a P35 DS3L. DS3R or P5K-E have better CPU power circuits and should overclock a quad a bit better.
