Nice results! How much of an improvement are you seeing over your old system?

It's really incredible to be honest with you. So much of a difference. I started using my old comp a little while ago and became quite agitated at its slow speed.

I believe it is a 24 but I'll double check when I get home.

My buddy with an E6400, P5B, Mushkin PC6400 is having a hell of a time OC'ing. He can't get above 2.5 stable. We think it's a combination of his NB getting too hot and his PSU not being able to pump enough power.

You are thinking of the wrong board. The board you are thinking of is the P5WDH which is 975 chipset and does require a newer bios to boot.

The P5B Deluxe works right out of the box no problems.
