what motherboard is ideal for the intel q6600 around the £70 mark? I want something that is good for overclocking. What should i look out for in a motherboard.

One thing that worries me is whether 8gb ram capacity is sufficient. Also should i disregard ddr3 given alot of ppl tel me about minimal performance difference.

The general consensus ive had is stick to asus and gigabyte, should i look at other brands>

ive had a look at these three boards in my price range.

Hmm, well if you can get it get the GA-EP45-DS3R. Also the Asus P5Q is pretty good.

Great mobo, for about 65£. The GIGABYTE GA-EP45-DS3L is a really great mobo, and it works great with my Q6600.
