Just a quick question regarding my motherboard.

Basically I never intended to overclock my system too much, so i didn't buy the best of the best stuff, however like always I've been drawn into things since I like being the best, and feel the need to push as high as I can.

Now my basic question is: Is my P6T SE aka the cheap P6T going to be my limiting factor?

I know mobos are a big part of getting the most out of a system, but how much of a difference would it make if I had say the standard P6T instead of the SE, or maybe the Deluxe V.2?
 
Well, I've got an hd4870, and i dont feel like shelling out for any nvidias if im honest, so lack of SLI isn't a problem.

I'm not gonna need more than one lan port, and i've got plenty of usb ports too, looks like im okay then.

I thought maybe the cheaper mobo would have bandwidth limitations across the board compared tothe other two.
 
Well I think (read as hope) I have a good 920, its a D0, and so far under stock cooling i've managed to get it to clock at 3.4Ghz stable while at a lwoer than stock voltage, i dunno how that compares with others since when i near 4ghz the voltage required might well skyrocket.. only time will tell i guess, thanks for the input guys.
