Had no problems either, except I couldn't boot into Windows with the default BIOS. Lucky for me, I downloaded the latest BIOS before I built the new system. This thing overclocks like a charm too, 3.6GHz on air cooling with a Zalman copper heatsink and 8cm Vantec Tornado fan.
I doubt if I will be wanting to overclock my processor. Will the heatsink, fan and supplied thermal paste/pad with Prescott processors hack the high heat though?

I don't wish to have fried processor with motherboard on the side
