Don't buy them.
Leave them all on the shelves so i can :jester:

3.34 ghz stable, crunching QMD and Rosetta.
Can bench much higher but not stable for 24hr use.

Meep
I am using asus P5P800 SE MB's.
Chose those because they have AGP and take standard DDR.

Update
Slight problem with the MB's.
The Voltage Regulators are getting Hot !!
They are hanging on in there though ;)

Installing windows went as smooth as silk, no problems.
Running DC Clients warms them up a bit :)

Currently running at 3.34ghz crunching rosetta WU's.
Will leave them for a day or 2 to see if stable before any further increase in clockspeed.

Final Update
Stock voltages, FSB 167, Memory set to 166 which is 5:4 so 208 Mhz actual.
Solid as rock, happy camper.

Note
Increasing the FSB past 167 results in a computer freeze seconds after starting up the DC clients
I have 4 of them and this behaviour is identical on all of them.
Might be MB BIOS related but i am not inclined to do any more investigating, I achieved my target FSB of 166.

So in summary:
Don't expect to run 4Ghz it aint gonna happen. {Except maybe Extreme style over volted Suicide runs)
3.3 is no problem though.
Cheap as Chips get them while you still can
