In overclocking forums they bash the asus p6t as bad for overclocking.
So, what is the best version of the motherboard today, which allows for a upgrade tomorrow?
Thanks for the info !

I hope that there will be a substantial speed improvement in reference to my current Quad 6700.

Your cpu is running 3.2 Ghz and can easily run 3.8 Ghz without changing voltage or anything. Usually EE processors are cherry picked and are basically underclocked processors. I bought an EE QX6750 several years back which was clocked at 2.66 Ghz and I have had it running 3.2 Ghz since I first got it and it is still working 24/7 perfectly. Give it a try, all you have to do with an EE processor is to change the multiplier in the BIOS. Give it a try.
