Any good?

Its going to be used with some HDD's I already have and a 8800GT i have on order elsewhere.

Aiming to overclock it to 3.2Ghz 400x8

Thanks
 
I have just got that CPU and a P35 motherboard with the aim of doing just that. All I would change would be that PSU - OCZ PSUs have a rep for not being the quietest. I would go for a Corsair 520W, or perhaps a Seasonic one.
 
Looks fine, as melbourne720 says you might want to change the PSU if noise is an issue but other than that it should suit. The only other point to note is that the IP35-E doesn't have solid caps so might last a slightly shorter time than a motherboard with solid caps but the difference is likely to be negligible as most people have replaced the motherboard long before it would become an issue. :)

thanks for the suggestions guys. I read somehwere that Corsair PSU's and abit boards aren't always a good combo. Will have a look at the seasonics though
