and the video card is a pci-e 16x

But if i were you I would look here in the b/s/t for a cheap 2nd p35/p45 motherboard. Can probably pick one up for cheaper that is going to be better as well.

I told you.

Buy a p35/p45 motherboard. Its newer technology and will allow for a stable and most likely higher OC.
