No. Intel boards tend to be very stable, high quality boards. They historically just have not been good overclockers.

you can probably go asus or gigabyte.. after that is the likes of msi, evga, dfi.. then theres asrock, ecs, foxconn, etc.. this is just in my opinion..

True, but the the Q8200 doesn't overclock anyways so sounds like a perfect match.

So you want to buy a new motherboard just so you can upgrade your ram? I dont think that would be money well spent since 4gb is plenty for most users and gamers.
