Has anyone got hold of one of these yet. They seem to be the cheapest way into Quad core. If anyone has one how well does it overclock?

Guys regarding the chipset we have to remember its quite an old design, remembering that i actually think it does an awesome job...for me better than i680 Guys regarding the chipset we have to remember its quite an old design, remembering that i actually think it does an awesome job...for me better than i680
Like all high end boards there will always be overclocking issues, issues at stock speeds are always a lot less but we all tend to forget this as we all overclock.
I for one WOULD buy the iCFX, I don't run superpi for a living and as such would probably never see it being a little slower than a 975. Games do pretty well though and it overclocks Kents real well due to in bios GTL ref voltage tweaking...so for me it is actually a worthy buy.
