Good OCer?

Hello all, I am fairly new to this site, but I was wondering, what would be a good CHEAP motherboard to overclock my e2140? Cheap meaning, as low as possible, under $75. As far as overclock, I would like to get to at least 2.6 ghz. Closer to 3.0 would be better.

the board i had before this is fairly easy to overclock and is pretty cheap. It's hard to get though. asus p5n-e sli

I was hoping for something either used, or something that is easy to get from newegg, or a site like that.

Should, or will be? I dont wanna buy something taking a chance on it.
I was thinking about getting this. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157130

BUT, I would like some input from anyone that has had it before I dump money into it.

You should go with the gigabyte board. Asrock is not very good and I wouldn't trust it for overclocking.

Dump your money into an ASUS board, im sure almost any will do, but im assuming that some will OC better then others. Your really going to have to spend $30-$40 more to get an ok board. Im not sure how 65nm setup's OC as the system I have now is the only one iv ever OC'd.
