Maximus Extreme is solid choice.

I know

I'll not use them to OC cuz they are kinda rare here in CZ..
For OC I'll still use my P5Q-SE PLUS and later upgrade to GIGABYTE EP45.

Never even heard of a P5Q SE Plus before, looks like it's just a P45 version of my old P5QL Pro which had P43 chipset.

Has anyone ever got higher than my 560 bus speed? just wondering

My Rampage Formula with G.Skill PC8500 is good for 550 daily, and has benched at 600 quite a bit. Not sure if my E8600 ES was the cap, or if the ram ran out of steam.. not sure what the chips are.. I have a X3360 on it right now, and pretty hard to get it passed 475 reliably. I had it about as strong as a stock i5 750 iirc.

Ah, that's a Xeon equivalent of Q9550.

...and I thought that 450fsb was awesome with my old nF650i SLI board 15 years ago. :laugh:

Wish i'd had better cooling. I did the OC with a freezer 7 pro o the E6300. Sure it could have done more.

I had an E6400 with CM Hyper TX2. 3.4GHz was 24/7 stable, 3.5GHz throttled as it needed a bit more of voltage. I had a MSI P6N SLI Platinum (nF650i SLI) as motherboard with it and 2x2GB HyperX DDR2-1066.

I had the first version of the e6300.. what a beast it was for ocing. I traded it and some cash for an e6600 that did not OC as well as I later found out.. still pretty good though.

I had a CNPS9500 on it.. and later the Ultra 120 Extreme

On first look they look almost the same

Which model of G.Skill RAM are you having? (I'm looking on one set, but don't want to waste money on modules which will do the same OC as Kingston I already have)
