Good mobo for OC?

I was thinking of getting this mobo to OC with a PII X4 955, does anybody have any experiences with this mobo?

Also, is the mobo Crossfire capable?

Why that particular motherboard?, If CF is important feuture that board goes away for obvious reasons.

(the slots sit's right next to eachother)

I would recomend a newer chipset board, the 890/880 with AM3+ support is what you would buy, the 890 is the most interesting if CF.

For a BE cpu, the oc capabileties isnt as important because you will OC the most by the unlocked multiplier of that 955.

Is this one of those mobos with a button that auto OCs?

[QUOTE="swehunt"][QUOTE="wolverine_97"] Do you know any motherboards that fit your description at the same price? I just wanted a motherboard capable of keeping a fairly good stable OC, CF isn't really important but i may CF in the future(maybe, but not likely)wolverine_97

[QUOTE="swehunt"] That board should OC but it's not a new board and it's not a very expencive (as in feuture rich) one either, the powerline don't seem to be as powerful neither with a 5phase. There a Asus M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 board for cheap on the same site and that's a great board with excellent OC capability. swehunt

If you own a Asus *GPU (*graphic card) it will OC that thru the ASUS particular software alivalable but no motherboard will OC the graphic card for you, the **CPU can be OC'ed by a button press if you want, but i can guide you thru a better way to OC "if" you want. (**assuming that was what you really meant?)

I always recommend OC'ing strict thru the BIOS since it'll give you the power to change every parameter exactly and have control over what your hardware REALLY does, a buttom press will never give you that kind of overview, but yes it has such buttons.

[QUOTE="wolverine_97"][QUOTE="swehunt"] It has one of those but why would you ever use that? 1) Run Bios 2) Raise the CPU multiplier. 3) save settings and Exit. That is how simple it is, takes half the time to do as open the case and pressing a "stupid" button on the motherboard. ;)swehunt

[QUOTE="wolverine_97"] Just asking, also, will it support AM3+, it is a very good mobo for the price. Also, does that button OC the GPU?wolverine_97
