Ahtlons ftw.

M-ATX board.

PS if this is the first time you've seen the 65nm "Kuma" dual core proc, it doesn't OC a whole lot better than brisbane (most reviewers take it to 3.2-3.3 on air), but its up significantly IPC (instructions per clock). So much so in fact it out runs a stock C2D E5200 in every situation bit-tech put it in, in the same situations even the 6400+ is usually slower. At 2MB L3, and 512k L2 per core, its not really all that suprising.

here's a couple more reviews:
