Not a great board for OCing by any means, but it'll still do 333FSB on a Conroe/Kentsfield, and would make a good board for a budget cruncher/folder (2 PCI-E for GPUs)

It will make it to 333 on a Conroe, but not likely on a Kentsfield...

It will, at least the one my friend had would allow him to get 3.2ghz on his Q6600
3200/9 = 356, so 333mhz seems likely :p

I've had two 680i(not 680i LT) boards, both failed to reach 333FSB stable with my Q6600. The 600i series chipsets completely sucked for quad-core overclocking, it was a known issue that most couldn't go over 300FSB with a quad, especially not ones based off the reference design.
