This MSI board is great and has top performance at stock speed, but it doesn't overclock at all, since it's based on the first generation K8T800 chipset, which doesn't have pci/agp lock. If you wanna overclock, get nForce3 or K8T800 pro chipset board, like chaintech VNF-250 for $75.

That's certainly pushing it, but it is a good deal on a mid-range processor.

would it be possible for me to get the same overclocking performance with this board?
EP-8KDA3J
Its half the price of the 8kda3+, just seems to lack raid.
thanks,

That's a great price. RAID increases the resale value and attractiveness, so why not get it if it's on special?

I'm considering this little guy what do you guys think? The chipset is an nforce3 250Gb, which what the Epox in the article was using.
