I want a 875 Canterwood motherboard icon_twisted.gif

Yup!! These look like winners (once the "minor problem" with the CPU's is fixed)
Getting very close to 4Ghz looks pretty easy, and the quoted prices are reasonable at $417 for a 3Ghz 800fsb cpu, and $150-200 for a loaded board.

Only ABIT gives users a chance to experience a 1 Gig FSB and 1 Gig DDR memory overclock thanks to advanced ABIT Engineering. Designed with the enthusiast in mind, the IC7-G Max2 Advance has the ABIT Engineered features that tweaking–obsessed users demand for GigaOverclocking. Features like ABIT Softmenu™, the first BIOS interface of its kind, where CPU FSB range, DDR VCC adjustment range, FSB: AGP: PCI ratio, multiplier factor and CPU Core Voltage are all adjustable. Also included is Fan EQ, which intelligently and automatically adjusts CPU fan speed according to system load and temperature, and TweakGuard, which automatically restores your default BIOS settings after a failed overclocking attempt. And with an onboard 4-phase power solution, the IC7-G Max2 Advance is not only more stable for overclocking, it is ready for the next generation of CPUs that require more power. Other 875 boards use only 3 or even 2 phases of power and must be considered inadequately powered for both serious overclocking and future generations of CPUs.

the Canterwood motherboard includes ICH5 South Bridge adding SATA 150, moving this to the south bridge bypasses the PCI bus alowing the full 150 meg a second.

Also it includes Intels Communications Streaming Architecture (CSA), this pulls the gigabit ethernet MAC off the PCI bus and onto its own dedicated 266MB/sec interface to the north bridge, this also reduces CPU usage giving greater performance.
