Looking to replace my current board with one more suited to overclocking as I want to hopefully unlock a core on my X3 720BE and find a clock speed that is somewhat better than standard

What boards in the OCUK range are better for what I want than others? Ideally, I wouldn't want to go much over £100 as I'll need to buy some new DDR3 RAM as well. I'm a bit confused by the differences between the chipsets, I assume the 8xx series ones are better but what differentiates them?

Any help, greatly appreciated!

One of the main differences is that the 800 series has USB 3.0 and SATA 6GB/s Support.

gigabyte 880GM-UD2H excellent overclocker and has onboard GFX. Don't let its small size fool you!

And it can unlock cores too?

Seems a good buy if it can.
