Not true at all. It is possible to OC a locked Sandy Bridge CPU like the i5 2400 to around 3.9 ghz.

Also not true. Asrock is no longer owned by ASUS and is producing motherboards equal in quality and reliability to ASUS boards
It's not garanteed to do that though, and who knows how long it can maintain a "hell on wheels" OC. I burned out a set of Crucial Ballistix DDR2 800 in less than a year running it at around 930 mhz(don't remember the exact OC)
They do it with issue.. They are rated 1.35-1.50v and at 1.50 you can get cl9 1600 @ 1.5 and thats not even pushing them np. But shit they have a lifetime warranty too..
