O/Cing MB with 2 IDE ports?

[immy]

I am needing a new motherboard that has 2 IDE ports and will allow me to adjust memory voltages and allow me to overclock my C2D processor.

Processor will be C2D 4300 or 6320 which i am hoping to overclock to above 3ghz

Memory will be 4gb ballistix 5300

Most of the recommended boards on the forum only support one ide port on the board.

Alternatively, where can i get some decent pci IDE cards (1 or 2 devices supported per card? )

I will have an ide optical drive i.e pioneer 112d
and i have three 500gb ide hard drives from my current system that require to go into the new system. Ideally at some point in future, im hoping to have the ide hard drives installed into a NAS setup but not got time for that at the moment.

obviously with one ide port i will be severely limited and overly reliant on pci ide cards or having to swap over to sata drives which will be increased cost for me.

Yeah ive noticed the E4300 isnt performing as well as the first batches.

I've put an order in for the E6320.

Just need to order the Motherboard, graphics card and memory now.
