I just set up a rig with some simple watercooling, the 680i from evga (122-NF68-A1), and a q6600 SLACR (G0 Stepping). It was quick and painless to get the FSB up to 1333 in the bios, running at 3.0 ghz without a problem. I recommend it, but I'd check out some of the cons, apparently there is a high limit (***edit: what I mean is there is apparently a max that is set***) on Raid throughput, as well as less overall overclocking potential than some p35 boards. It also has problems running 8gb of ram I hear. Working fine for me, overclocking cpu and gpu a breeze, 2 pci-e x16 slots would make SLI very nice if money is not an issue...
