Yeah, I ordered mine from OcUK. In all fairness, they've been pretty good really, fast response to my e-mails and friendly etc. The reason I'm still without my CPU is, I ordered a new case at the same time; the elusive CoolerMaster WaveMaster (Silver) and they're out of stock. Got bored and cancelled the case off my order, so I should get it wednesday at the latest......hopefully

Re: 3DMark05...
Well in the end OcUK came up good. I now have "my precious" up and running at 2.8GHz
Pain in the ass to get a single S-ATA drive to work on this board though!
I'll upload my new scores soon...

The onboard VIA S-ATA is crap basically, never had a problem with the Intel based boards. Got it plugged into the Promise RAID controller now & it works fine

It's not the best score I've seen, you've seen our scores, a couple of us break 6000.
