Do great things come in small packages? I'm referring to both the box and the board.
The more I look at this board on Newegg, the more I like it!

Think im leaning towards the 750 like bang for my buck ;-) plus need to save for a 5870 if i dont stick in another 4870 
what cooling are you using? How far do you reckon I could go on stock cooling as doesnt appear to be many decent ones available yet in uk :-(
would see much difference between these sets of memory?

So, fits and everyone else with a p55 board. What are you guys doing for cooling right now? I've considered switching one of my rigs over to 1156, but I can't find 1156 mounting for the Megahalems or the TRUE yet.

I'm disappointed. I really thought p55 mounts would be out for the 2 best air coolers on the market. Guess that makes my decision easy, for now.

Feasting.... now feast your eyes on this.
Working on highest blck, so far its 215 (bah, board limitation so far).
Highest its passing LinX at is 212.
Highest bootable so far, 215x20 (4.3GHz)
I'm using a Noctua NH-U12P with 1156 plate (obviously) with two scythe 87cfm fans.

paulo, check out bit-tech.net's review on lynnfield's multi GPU setup, 8x8x isn't bad at all.

How much harder will this be to overclock than a core 2 duo system? (I know bit of an open ended question lol)

It's not harder at all, easier if anything. With the Core i5 750, all I had to do was put the IMC voltage to 1.3, and CPU to what I think the max safe is on air (really good air setup) 1.4v, and I'm able to hit 4.3 bootable. For my current stable setting, im at 1.3v IMC, and 1.375v CPU for 212x19 which results to 4,039GHz. I'm working on 213 and 214, but making any blck above 212 fully stable is a bit of a task.

Thermalright has one that should work with a TRUE120 if you can find it in stock.

If you have a Noctua cooler, they are giving out free 1156 plates. Keep that in mind!
