Motherboard for overclocking E21xx?

[quadomatic]

I think I'm finally going to upgrade my PC to the E2160 and overclock the hell out of it, but when I looked on newegg.com for the Abit motherboard that was recommended to me (IP35-E), I saw that it was out of stock.

Is there another, low-cost motherboard, that I could use to get a great overclock out of the E2160?

I would say the GA-p35-DS3L, but it has mysteriously vanished from Newegg... You could try zipzoomfly.com or mwave.com for the IP-35-E or get the DFI Blood Iron, GA-P35-DS3R, or MSI Neo-Combo.

Wow, DS3L gone now too? What is this world coming to.

Is DS3L that good? I don't know a lot about motherboards, but it's FSB is only 1066. Isn't that bad compared to the MSI and DFI motherboards?

I found the DS3L on ZipZoomFly. Is this the right one?

The ip35-e is back in stock at newegg. Boy do I feel stupid for buying mine from another online retailer for $125 after shiping. I wasted $35.

Buy it now in my opinion. $90 is a great price.

Awesome, thanks for the tip.

So does everyone think that this is the best option for overclocking the e2160?

I use an IP35-e to run my e2140 1.6 @ 3.2ghz. It will even do 3.4, but just too much juice/heat needed.
