Just recieved E8400 need some help..

fillrate, I think I am about to make your day. Not only does the mobo I am going to link support OC'd speeds of 1600FSB+ for the cpu and 1200+ for the RAM it doesn't need a bios update to support the E8400 wolfdale(which is why I choose it for my build in a week). The Gigabyte EP35-DS3R for $133, $8 shipping. Also has the good ICH9R south bridge(R standing for Raid ofc).
