are u limited to only mATX mobos? most mATX are not good at OCing. what is your budget? the best micro mobo to OC with is the P5E-VM HDMI. it supports a very high fsb OC and has CPU and memory voltage controls. as for me, i am on a really tight budget and will be buying GA-73VM-S2 to OC an e2180 past 3ghz. that one only supports vcore adjustments

I have a E2200 (very similar to the E2160) and a GA-P35-DS3l.
