Asus with 845E or 845G?

[dP21]

Hey all,

I'm trying to figure out which mobo to spring for. I'm a big Asus fan, so I'm looking at either the P4B533 or the P4B533-V. Now what has got me is which is better from an O/C perspective. I read on Tom's that the 845G has the better memory bandwidth for DDR333. But I read everyone's rig and it seems the P4B533 is the board. Why?! I don't care for the onboard video, but just want to make sure I get the best chipset for my use. Any advice is mucho appreciated!

845E is a better overclocker than 845G. The 845G has 4:5 mem ratio to run DDR333 @ 533 FSB, but you can run DDR354 @ 533 FSB on an 845E with the 3:4 ratio.
