But If I get the pro will it effect my gaming experience?

i just want to mildly overclock my q6600 to 2.8/3.0. And I have a good cooler.

Thanks!

You will have better results overclocking a quad with the Deluxe because of the 16 phase power.

I can overclock my quad (Q6600) to 3.2 (8x400) on a p5K-vm with 4 phase power. I think the P5Q Pro has 8 phase power. The Pro and the P5Q-E are both excellent choices. The P5Q-E / P5Q-pro will also give decent (not the best) result for crossfire 4850s.

 

All of these boards have express gate quick on feature. The P5Q-E looks like it has a slightly better cooling solution on the board.
