Id say go with the DFI, the overclocking options are exceptional and easily laid out, even a noob cant mess up with a DFI board, you just have to slowly go over the BIOS and learn it, takes about 30 mins, lots of ram timing options, lots of voltage options, etc etc...just go with the dfi.

I've owned about 3 different ASUS motherboards, they are VERY OC friendly and they take a lot of stress. They have Artificial Intellicane OCing, and NOS. Premium is better than deluxe...
