And yes they are mine. 
I need to sort myself out with some DDR3 ram. 3rd order from OCUK this week. DOH! And then I'll get some figures up at stock clocks, Overclocked on air clocks, and some phase action later on.

Sweet looking motherboard. 
From the Web:
"The X38 supports a pair of PCI Express 2.0 x16 slots - certainly good for SLI set-ups. It supports a 1333MHz frontside bus speed and DDR 3 memory clocked at the same frequency. It'll take DDR 2 too, but only at up to 800MHz"
What DDR2 Ram would you pair with this then ?
And where did you get such sweetness from ?

yes it is one of the new 45nm penryn processors.
subscribed to thread
The top end one at that
where is subscribe... hah
EDIT-Got it!
I wonder how cheap that E8200 will be, around £130?, I hope its an awsome overclocker too!.
Will the Penryn CPU's perform better than the current ones, for example the 2.66Ghz E8200 put against the E6700 at 2.66Ghz surely the Penryn must be quite abit in front.
Looking forward to results though.

.5-10% better clock for clock. I'm pretty sure i heard that somewhere
Was expecting more than that lol, still its heading in the right direction and the C2D's are fast as it is, if that 8200 overclocks nicely to 3.5 or more and is around £110 I'll probs get one of those.
For £10 more you could have an 8400 @ 3ghz though...which will probably clock even further
Sounds tempting, hoping to get one when its out streight away
