XFX 680i LT or Gigabyte GA-965p-ds3 v3.3

[gwiz1987]

i have these 2 mobos. which one is the better mobo/chipset for oc? im using the xfx right now and tooo lazy to do a full reinstallation of vista just to test out the gigabyte one... AND im not sure if its gonna fail at ocing the e8400. i checked the gigabyte site and the wolfdale support is "non official". does that mean it MIGHT work??

ive read that the 680i isnt a good mobo for ocing, but its stable atm @ 3.6ghz. the only prob is the mcp goes around 56 degC which i think is too hot.

Check for bios updates under "cpu support" before deciding. 965 boards don't support wolfdale's without a bios update.
