Ok so this morning I've just installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64 for the first time, and it's actually my first ever experience with windows 7!
I decided to go with a Samsung 64gb SSD because at the time it was one of the only ones in stock really!
I've installed the Asus drivers off their website for the motherboard, and a couple other apps and thats about it. Not done a single firmware update or messed around with any settings, and I thought i'd just share my Crystalmark screenie. I think it's not bad do you?

 
Ok so I havn't quite got my pc stable yet at 4ghz, tried to copy old settings from memory with the motherboard change, seems it's not quite there yet.
I did however start to run AS SSD Benchmark, reads were a little lower at 211mb/s and 136mb/s write... never got much farther before BSOD. I guess P45 chipset is a little different from P35. I can't be bothered to run it again just now, but i'm assuming you guys knew the readings would be a little lower.
I'm not that bothered really, its still right up there with some of the best speed readings i've seen for 64gb drives.
 
Good job mines 18C1Q then. Tbh would you really notice the difference between them? I highly doubt it, i'm not a benchmark whore. It loads things fast, it doesn't pause, what more could I want?!
