True, but not really.. The max the max3 board will bring is around 2.9v, anything above that, your gonna need a volt mod for (fairly common and simple). Besides, I can't imagine someone trying to run some BH5 on this board.
@dsddcd, Yes, there are other options, The DFI 875P board is really a great OCer. There are 2 revs for that board, the A and the B, get the B, better for prescotts than the A. (more common too) Also, Gigabyte makes a 875P board, suppost to be one of the more common 875P boards (= cheaper price) but the OC features can be iffy... That's really about it, the Canterwood chipset didn't really hit the enthuiasts eye at the time at release which is a bummer, but they are sill available. Ebay is about your best location, the retail stores will just overprice the boards due to the rarity of them.
