Buy an Asus P4P800,with the money saved on the mobo buy a 2.6C instead of a 2.4.it will give you more OC room.
 
thanks for the replies guys but what do i loose or gain with the 865 over the 875 ?
i currently run a pci raid 0 setup (IDE) and would ideally in the future invest in 1 or 2 of the WD Raptors to run on SATA.

so i will b ok with the ASUS 865 (why not the deluxe model ?) or am i better goin for the 875 ? for future upgrades etc ?

also please lemme know what is the BEST ram (to pair with this board 🙂

thankyou very much all, i look forward to my purchaces with all yer advice. btw is the 2.6c the CPU to go for over the 2.4c as stated in the reply ? cos i don`t mind spending a little more for the best.

From what I read on anandtech that the 875 offers no real gain over the 865 for its price tag. Just a thought.
